Stunning photo of a flock of birds in flight
Birds in flight provide some of the most stunning sights in nature. This photograph captures a flock of birds soaring through the sky, their beautiful plumage on display.
The photograph was taken by Flickr user Fæ, who captured the image near Winchester, England. The black and white tones add to the dramatic effect of the scene.
A flock of birds is dividing opinion online
A flock of birds spotted in a rural area of England is dividing opinion online, with some people labeling the formation as an amazing natural occurrence, while others say it's a sign of something far more sinister.
The pictures of the birds were posted to Twitter by user @christopher870 on November 9th and have since been retweeted over 1,000 times.
In the picture, it appears that hundreds of birds have taken flight and formed what looks like a large letter X in the sky.
While some people are awestruck by the sight, others believe that it could be a sign of something ominous happening.
Some people have even suggested that the flock of birds might be a sign of the apocalypse.
Others have put forward theories that the letter X might actually be an omen for bad luck.

Scientists study mysterious 'flock behaviour'
A team of international scientists has been researching the mysterious 'flock behaviour' exhibited by some bird species.
The researchers observed that when a flock of birds flew together, they would all suddenly turn in the same direction at the same time. They were also able to determine that this behaviour was not due to any one bird leading the flock, but was instead an automatic response to some external stimulus.
The team's findings could have important implications for understanding how animals interact and react to their environment. The research could also lead to new ways of controlling flocks of birds for purposes such as crop pollination or pest control.
The study was carried out by scientists from the University of Cambridge in the UK, the Max Planck Institute for Ornithology in Germany, and Queen Mary University of London in the UK. It was published in the journal Science.
