He captured beautiful footage of a flock of starlings flying in a murmuration against a gorgeous Irish sunset backdrop.

他拍摄了一组美丽的画面，一群欧椋鸟在爱尔兰绚丽的落日背景下低声飞翔。

Molamphy filmed the birds at Tipperary Lake in Luska, Ireland. The passerines glide in unison almost like a well-planned ballet against the pink and orange sky.

Molamphy在爱尔兰卢斯卡的蒂珀雷里湖拍摄了这些鸟。在粉红色和橙色的天空下，路人齐步走着，就像精心设计的芭蕾舞。

Starlings can grow up to 14 inches in length and weigh up to 14 ounces. They are a highly social family of birds and are known for large flight formations like the one you see.

椋鸟可以长到14英寸长，重达14盎司。它们是高度群居的鸟类家族，以大型飞行编队而闻名，就像你看到的那样。

迷人的日落和协调的鸟类表演是开始新的一年的最佳方式——所有这些都是大自然的恩赐。
