God in Nature Murmuration of Starlings
By Kayleigh Jacobs-Rutter
Look to the sky during autumn and winter and if you’re
lucky, you’ll see one of nature’s most amazing sights:
the starling murmuration. But what is it? Why do they
do it? And how do starlings manage to perform such
amazing acrobatics without crashing into each other in
mid-air? It’s a huge flock of thousands of starlings,
which looks a bit like a giant swarm. They swirl through
the skies together just before swooping down and
settling into their roost for the night. Murmurations are
believed to act as giant signposts, attracting all the other
starlings in the area so that all the birds can roost together. But why do they do this? Well, there are lots of rea-
sons. When there are thousands of birds all wheeling and turning together, it makes it much harder for preda-
tors to single out one particular bird. Winter nights can be really chilly. But the bigger the flock, the more
warmth there is to share. Large roosts are much cozier than small ones. Starlings are also very chatty, and they
get together to share important information – such as where to find good feeding sites. While the most spectac-
ular murmurations are made up of thousands – sometimes hundreds of thousands – of starlings, it’s possible to
have smaller murmurations made up of about 200-300 birds. But they can be seriously massive: a murmuration
of more than six million starlings was recorded in 1999/2000 at Shapwick Heath National Nature Reserve in
Somerset, England. Now that’s a lot of birds! Why don’t the starling bump into each other? It’s a good ques-
tion. Just how do thousands of birds know which way to go and when to turn? Well, each starling follows the
movement of the six birds flying closest beside it. And because they have lightning-fast reactions – under 100
milliseconds – and superb spatial awareness, if one bird changes speed or direction, those around it do too. This
ripples through the murmuration and means that they’re able to fly at speeds of around 20mph without crash-
ing in mid-air. Starlings prefer to roost in sheltered places, away from predators. Think woods, reed beds, cliffs
and buildings. They don’t always roost in the same places every year, and not always in such big numbers. But
there are lots of places around the country where you can see massive murmurations year after year. This mys-
tery of the murmuration of starlings can be explained by one thing, instinct. However, who programmed these
remarkable birds with this instinct? We can credit our God for this wonderful creation that was made for all
mankind to enjoy and marvel at.

Oración para Pentecostés
Oh Dios, así como mandaste tu Santo Espíritu sobre la Iglesia
primitiva en las lenguas encendidas y el fuerte viento de Pente-
costés, ahora, te pedimos que mandes ese mismo Espíritu sobre
nosotros, para que podamos salir a proclamar el Evangelio de
Cristo a cada criatura. Humildemente oramos para que tú
aumentes tu vida Trinitaria entre nosotros; haznos testigos
santos y efectivos de la muerte y Resurrección de Jesús; ayúda-
nos a vivir nuestra fe católica con tal alegría, convicción y amor
que atraiga a otros al sagrado misterio de tu Iglesia y a la gracia
poderosa de los sacramentos. Te suplicamos que nos hagas
ministros de tu Palabra, en la expresión y la acción, en la verdad
y la caridad, en el misterio de la cruz de Jesús y en la luz de su
gloriosa resurrección. Amén.
