FEATURE - Vogelschwärme am Meer in Brighton, UK
A photographer has captured stunning bird murmurations this week in Brighton – including a kiss-like lip shape above the famous pier.
Brighton would probably not be the first name on the lips for avian extravaganzas but several thousand murmurating starlings change that preconception. Wildlife photographer Paul Goldstein has been thwarted for most of the year from guiding abroad so areas like Norfolk and the South Coast have been very much on the agenda.
'This last week has been excellent with repeated shows lasting from twenty to forty minutes before the birds roost on the West side of Brighton's pier. To stand listening to the surf with this show above is a delight; some have even been swimming and paddle-boarding out to enjoy them .... in December.
'It may not be the ornithological orgy of some 20,000 strong murmurations, but it is accessible and utterly mesmerising. if they followed social distancing guidelines it would not be half the spectacle. As far as I am concerned, if you want this sort of late matinee spectacular: Brighton rocks!'

FEATURE - Riesige Vogelschwärme in Norfolk, UK
A photographer has captured jaw-dropping pictures of birds in Norfolk – including a flock shaped like a BIRD.
At this time of year photographer and guide Paul Goldstein would normally be photographing big cats in Kenya. Unfortunately, due to what he terms as 'one-size-fits-all' travel advice he cannot. Therefore, Norfolk has been his patch and particularly the Snettisham bird spectacular on the North coast of the county.
"I would stop to photograph this anywhere in the world," the photographer says as he watches thousands of knots, dunlins, redshanks and oystercatchers perform their acrobatics forming mysterious patterns above the tidal flats. "Sometimes they look like a whole weather front coming in and they get really lively if a raptor like a harrier or particularly a peregrine falcon joins them.”
“The recent spring tides have been a bonus as the flocks are pushed onto the small islands in the nearby lagoon, where they congregate in vast numbers but in seemingly strict order.”
"This is a worthy RSPB flagship venue, well managed and a lifesaver for many wilderness fans this summer.”
Paul is a photographer and guide who normally guides in Kenya, Alaska, Canada, Antarctica, Namibia and Brazil.
