@sup.yoga.bae: So has anyone else ever seen birds (I guess) flying in continuous patterns like this?? This is only a small clip it kept going for at least 10 more minutes while I was in traffic. I noticed it yesterday and thought it was smoke or clouds from a further distance. Bizarre. #birds #birdsoftiktok #strangerthings #whatisthis #help

You’re experiencing a murmuration, congrats they are beautiful.

Did you know, bird murmuration mirrors quantum wave patterns. Each bird is only choosing its reaction based on about the 7 birds most closest to it. If the flock becomes too organized its volatility becomes intense and must break into parts. The same happens when there’s too much chaos. But when they keep balance (a stable wave field) they flow perfectly together, changing motion in a seemingly organized but random way. 🤓

Yes. It’s beautiful. Reminds me of schools of fish. As it is above so it is below.

I cannot believe this random moment I captured while being frustrated stuck in traffic would turn out so beautiful and that so many of you would see it and appreciate it. Loving all of these positive and hopeful comments and facts and stories. I love seeing this and reading them everyday..please keep them coming. After this year we could all use a little hope and kindness. video
