Nice that they did a bit of a writeup with some comments from the photographer too:

It's a subject I'd love to get a decent photo of some day - no hope of getting one this good, I think.

James and Colin (the guy that did the video) have spent quite a bit of time traveling around tryin to capture murmations, it’s great for James to capitalize on his PPAI award (overall best photographer) last week.

He is a genuinely nice guy and a great photographer who has been at the top level for 15+ years.
