Truely being at the right place and at the right time and it does pay to lug around ones camera for the unknown. Great capture. Thank you for sharing.

Nice and incredible picture. Sure the farmers where not very happy about the starlings invading their farms. They are harmful to crops.

Fort Worth and Dallas Texas both has had a big problem with them also. once in downtown Dallas outside of Reunion station I was waiting to pickup someone. it was cold to keep the windows up and I had the radio playing but could not hear it becuase of the birds across the street in 1000's. incredible capture Troy

That is a LOT of birds! I agree it looks like the Hitchcock movie! Its weird how they seem to have formed a wall between you and the farm. Fantastic shot!

Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!What an incredible capture Troy!Reminds me of the Hitchcock movie...almost scary but what a beautiful thing! Life and death all in this, with the delapidated buildings and the frenzy of birds..amazing, powerful image! Bravo friend Troy! Many apologies for my late response, I am still not well, still have a lousy connection but wanted to make a quick visit. See ya soon I hope!

Incredible photography Troy !!!! Never seen something like that since the Birds of Hitchcock !!! It seems completly unreal to see so many starlings in the same place, flying away. Fantastic ! and the place with these old houses... really perfect ! This one gone in my favs ;o))))) V
