In this video I captured millions of tree swallows coming in to roost for the night. This was truly an amazing site in person, something I will never forget! Be sure to watch at least from the 3 minute mark to see when they are in a big flock and look like schooling fish. The sound they made was very loud. At the end when they started getting closer, it was getting a little scary. They do this to be safe at night from predators.

I am an award winning filmmaker. Many of my short films have been shown in film festivals all over the Untied States. Several of my bird videos have been used by the Natioanl Audubon Society and seen on TV shows in the United States and Canada.
I went to California State University, Northridge and majored in TV and film production. I grew up in Hollywood, California and made super8 films with Frank Darabont who wrote and directed "The Shawshank Redemption" and created "The Walking Dead" for TV. Also, working on the super8 movies was my friend Greg Melton who is the Production Designer on "Marvels Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.".
Thanks for watching!
