Does anyone know anything about birds???

Question

When you see a group of birds flying together and they all suddenly change directions all at once, what are they doing and how do they know which direction to go? Is there one bird they listen too or is there some code they give? I think it is really neat to watch almost like they are dancing in the sky. I was just woundering if there was a purpose to them doing it and how they do it.

Answer 1

i think so

Answer 2

Yes they are beautiful.

Answer 3

It's known as "flock mentality". They're genetically programmed to do so. In some ways, you can say that they receive brainwaves on how to coordinate together. It's similar to how basketball players know when to 'cut in' when a teammate has a ball.
