I’d like to think that my new-found crazy cat lady tendencies aren’t the reason I love this video. This is pretty awesome in its own right. Am I right?
In other animal news, check out this video showing the incredible flight patterns of Starling birds. Ornithologists say that the patterns are generally caused by the Starlings trying to escape their prey. But what’s especially amazing is how accurately and immediately the movement of birds at one side of the flock are imitated by those at the other side. It’s so accurate, in fact, that scientists are still trying to figure out exactly how they do it.
This reminds me of my common rebuttal when people complain about “The Wave.” Isn’t it such a beautiful representation of people working together to achieve the same goal? (FYI, that observation doesn’t generally work on hardcore sports fans.)
