Coruscant sky traffic
This somewhat strange title refers to a scene in one of the star wars movies, where you can see an immense amount of space ships flying through the air on the planet of Coruscant.
I guess this doesn't need further explanation. The picture itself was shot in one of my favorite locations close to home, where geese are abundant, and i wanted to show you a panorama of one of the areas (there are three areas more) where they are residing, eating, making noise, and from time to time leaving the ground, when a bird of prey is flying over. The squeaking and the sound of flapping wings is absolutely amazing.
Furthermore spring is arriving, so birds that nestle here are coming, for instance lapwings have arrived, and you can see from time to time a group op ca 500 individuals flying through the air which adds up to the spectacle, and on top of that starlings in massive amounts make their contribution as well to the scene.
So I tried to make something to give you a feel of what it is to be here. I stitched four pictures, and with different layers added more birds to the scene (mainly in the air). This is only a minor view of the spectacle though. I am not sure if the size of the picture is appropriate for the flickr frame, but by clicking it should be possible to see a little bit more. Hope you enjoy this pic.
