Tour for Two: Tree Swallow Migration - September 7

Each year, hundreds of thousands of migrating tree swallows converge on Goose Island in Old Lyme, Connecticut, to use the island as a protected, communal roost. At dusk, the birds take to the skies, performing a mesmerizing murmuration of synchronized, swirling patterns. As daylight fades, the flock shifts into a dramatic, tornado-like funnel before rapidly plunging into the safety of the marsh grass for the night.
