caught moving together over the sunset in northern Spain.
Marco Campazas, 39, spotted the flock of birds swarming through the sky while he was driving through Spain's Logrono City on Christmas day.
He pulled over and captured the last seconds of their incredible display - twisting and merging together 'like a lava lamp'.
The admin worker, who is a keen amateur photographer, said: 'I was driving my car and through the window noticed the birds.
'I stopped straight away and filmed them, it was quite lucky to see them like this.
'It was just during sunset just before their bed time.
'I managed to capture the end of their display before they all landed and went to sleep for the evening.
'It's a beautiful scene and not one that you see every day.'
Starlings are small birds native to Europe, Asia, Africa, and Northwestern Australia.
According to the RSPB, the birds perform the dazzling aerial stunt for several reasons.
Amassing as a large group offers safety in numbers, with birds of prey finding it difficult to target one bird among the hypnotic swarm.
The birds also gather to keep warm before bed and to exchange key information, such as good feeding areas.
No one knows why starlings perform these incredible displays - and for this writer to make assumptions then state them as facts is typical DM arrogance.[CN]
没有人知道掠鸟为什么排成这种壮观的队形 - 然后这个坐着来做一些假设,称之为事实暴露了每日邮报的傲慢,够经典。
Christian astrophysicist Hugh Ross thinks that nature and all creations are God's second book to the Bible- the Book Of Nature. When I saw this the delight and glory for God are overwhelming. Right up there with the Sparkly unicorn cocoa also in DM today![CN]
