Biggest Swarm of Budgies

Budgerigars search for food and water in the outback of Australia. They fly in small flocks which gradually join other flocks of budgies, allowing their numbers to increase to super swarms of millions of budgerigars. Earthflight uses many different filming techniques to create the experience of flying with birds as they encounter some of the greatest natural events on the planet.
