A photographer captures the moment 5,000 birds create an exclamation mark formation in the sky.
A flock of birds cried fowl in spectacular fashion when a predator swooped in for the kill - forcing them to form the shape of an exclamation mark. Photographer Nuray Gonulalan was amazed when she looked up and saw the familiar punctuation symbol - often associated with shock or panic - hovering above her. She grabbed her camera and captured the pack of birds in their striking formation as they desperately attempted to escape in Mogan Lake, Ankara, Turkey.

The sky is smiling.

The ability of animal groups—such as this flock of starlings—to shift shape as one, even when they have no leader, reflects the genius of collective behavior—something scientists are now tapping to solve human problems. Photograph by Manuel Presti.


At first glance this incredible picture may look like one huge bird hovering in the sky, but the amazing outline is actually formed by a flock of starlings. The birds made the unbelievable formation as they came under threat from a nearby peregrine falcon. Once the flock had spotted the predator they grouped together to mimic the appearance of a massive flying creature.
Amateur photographer Rob Wolstenholme was on hand to snap the mind-boggling phenomenon at Shapwick Heath National Nature Reserve in Somerset.
