That's a great question, Pikake. I'm trying to think of a "swirling blackbirds" perfume in my collection...hmm. Oddly enough, what springs to mind is Caron's Alpona, though I could not say why. (I suppose it should be En Avion, but that one seems all wrong.)
Thanks for posting that link. I thought I'd seen huge bird flocks, but now realize they were small. Oh, only about 1000-5000! They were awesome. Yes, this seems otherworldy. Perhaps some of that is because it's not in person? When I saw 5000 Brant, I heard the sound way before I saw the sight.
Julie, I don't think I've ever seen a brant, a flock of thousands must be amazing. I love the racket starlings make. I can imagine a huge group of waterfowl would make an overwhelming noise. Was it thrilling to hear them?
That's freaky. Did Mulder and Scully take that footage?
ReplyDeleteBreathtaking. I'm curious what perfume evokes the feeling you got from watching that? I'm thinking AG's Eau de Sud for me, but I don't know why.
ReplyDeleteDave, no more sci-fi for you.

Hmmmm, Alpona. Shall have to sniff that the next time I am at the Perfume House!

ReplyDeleteThat's downright poetic - what a racket they must have made!
