WHAT THE FLOCK!

A murmuration of starlings morphs into one giant bird in the skies over Spain’s Costa Brava. Daniel Biber, 53, of Hilzingen in Germany, spent four days observing hundreds of thousands of birds before capturing the breathtaking event. He said: “It was only when I checked the pictures later that I realised what formation the starlings had created.” The photograph earned him a top award. D.Telegraph, Metro, 2 Jan 2018.
