Word of the Day: Murmuration

Nope, I'd never heard of Murmuration before, but apparently it means a flock of starlings (those are birds, moron), and specifically references a movement they do as winter is approaching.

I didn't know any of this. I didn't even really know what a starling was.

I know!

But I did see this video, posted by a few friends on Facebook, and hot damn, this is really, really cool. Would be amazing to be caught up in this live as these two were - do yourself a favor and watch this:

Even if this means winter is coming, this is damn fine stuff. Oh, and "Winter is Coming?" That means Game of Thrones is on its way back soon.
