It was something that was too surreal and otherwordly to believe at first sight. Yet, it is all too real.
Pictures may confuse us but they share truths that are more simple, profound, and awe-inspiring.
A stunning set of photos captured by photographer James Crombie show a massive flock of starlings forming the shape of a giant bird as they flew in formation over a lake in Ireland.
The pictures, captured on March 2, show the flock of starlings flying over Lough Ennell Co. Westmeath near the town of Mullingar. The perfect synchronised flying forms a giant bird shape that is also reflected on the water below.
