Mushroom cloud of starlings

Robert Harding

This amazing photo shows a ‘murmuration’ of starlings (yes, that really is the collective noun), which form the shape of a mushroom cloud. Renown photographer Tim Graham snapped them as they came in to roost at dusk on the Avalon Marshes at Shapwick Heath Nature Reserve in Somerset.
