Check out this is a video of a half a million birds swarming over Sacramento California. After watching this I thought about a B movie I watched back in the late 70s called "Swarm". It was about a bunch of Americanized bees that wrecked havoc in Houston. Well the way these birds are flying over the city of Sacrament reminded me of the way the bees swarmed over Houston in the move the swarm.
Check out the video of the Birds over Sacrament here
I bet that was a common site over a large majority of this country at one time. Pretty neat video.
Great vid :)
Pretty amazing.
Very cool.
Statues in the area will be covered in fresh Pelosis.
I think you mean “Africanized” bees in that B(ee?) movie. However, it would be nice if we really had a swarm of Americanized killer bees who could be trained to lethally sting all the Demonrats in Congress.
Something about letting him know what they think about his ....(hem) leadership.
Let's hope they were successful in delivering their message! lol!
You gotta see this video.
Very cool. FYI - it’s known as a “murmuration”.
Some additional info on the phenomenon can be found here:

Thanks for posting.
The amazing flocks of starlings are very cool. They appear regularly in beautiful downtown Rome and other major cities.
It's still one of he most beautiful places on earth. Too bad it's infested with commies.
I saw a formation this large in the farmland of Central California near 5-Points driving south on Highway 145 last week. They turned the sky dark as they flew over my truck out of the orchards. It reminded me of the huge schools of fish you might see in the National Geographic TV specials, tens of thousands moving and bending in unison. Really a sight to remember.
OMG - that’s so awesome. Were you able to hear the sound of all those flapping wings?
I’ve only seen one in person once - en route to the Denver airport about a week and a half ago. It was too far away to hear but I stopped the car and watched them until they were out of sight.
Just amazing.
