Thousands of Dunlin (a sandpiper species) form a murmuration that is constantly changing shape and direction as they evade predators like peregrine falcons and merlin. Off Brunswick Point, Delta, British Columbia, Canada.

Wow, that's a nice image. Getting interesting shots of flocks of birds is a lot harder than one would think. Much less catching them this time of day with that sky. Really a nice shot.
