  This was a pure chance encounter and had never seen a murmuration before. I was on a business trip to Belfast and bumped into a keen photographer waiting for it to happen or I would never have known. And she is now a very good friend

    I looked up “murmuration”: this is a delicious word! And the images that came up …wow!
