The Black Sun (Sort Sol) Phenomenon in Denmark

This video was taken by my friend "Ditlev Krausse" in Denmark. I was also a fortunate spectator to this spectacle.
From Wikipedia:
Huge flocks of more than a million Starlings are observed just before sunset in spring in southwestern Jutland, Denmark. There they gather in March until northern Scandinavian birds leave for their breeding ranges by mid-April. Their flocking creates complex shapes against the sky, a phenomenon known locally as sorta sol ("Black Sun"). To witness this spectacle, the best place are the seaward marshlands (marsken in Danish) of Tønder and Esbjerg municipalities between Tønder and Ribe.
