I didn't film the murmuration of knots or sandpipers but here is one I did film of starlings in midwinterhttps://twitter.com/casparhenderson/status/1077961704951242752 …

Quite a lot of people have seen and like a clip of knots in flight that I tweeted on 25 September. I didn't film the clip, but I did see something like it at Snettisham nature reserve a few years ago. Here's part of what I wrote about it in A New Map of Wonderspic.twitter.com/Ep3bjOpIwR

Many reactions to this clip have been a form of 'wow' or 'thanks for sharing.' Some have reflected on what the murmuration may illustrate WRT organisation in nature. Some have wondered about the potential of drones. Here's a corporate examplehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=3&v=JYlQwR6u-_c …

A few have expressed of fear. It's likely that fear of predators among the birds played a role in the evolution of this behaviour, but there is nothing for humans to fear here, only beauty. Drone swarms, e.g. imagined

Are they actually murmuring as opposed to merely flocking? Can it apply to birds other than starlings?

I don’t know how one would define the difference between murmuring and flocking, but to me it looks very much like the former. And yes, I think it can. Better ask an ornithologist, though
