Alsof ze een eerbetoon brengen, tienduizenden spreeuwen vliegen in formatie over de elektriciteitpalen bij de Schotse grens. Fotograaf Owen Humphreys was de vogels die wegtrekken naar een milder klimaat al weken lang aan het opwachten.

‘The shapes they formed were spectacular, making a gorilla, two dolphins and maybe even a giant bird. People can see in them what they like. There was also a real bird of prey, probably a buzzard, which seemed to make the starlings fly even more. As well as the visual sight, the noise of them flying was remarkable.’
