I read somewhere that each starling observes 6-7 other starlings in the formation to see where they should fly.

I actually emailed my Artificial Intelligence professor about this very video. He did his dissertation on swarms and nanotechnology related items. It's interesting, he gave me three words: cohesion, separation, alignment.

That just sounds hilarious. lol... anyone interested in swarms.

highways like veins

The birds are doing complex quantum mechanical wave functions by utilizing a complex array of groupings. These wave functions, shown in real time, have yet to be understood by humans at this current time. Ultimately the birds, and there are a lot of them, know how to do complex quantum mechanical wave functions on the fly.
