​The Bravery Foundation actively strives to engage in the power of *murmurations. Nature naturally demonstrates this incredible phenomenon and teaches us how to connect with one another. We believe it's possible for everyone to participate in this amazing behavior!  

​*A group movement of community behaviors through a multitude of individual responses to one another; a breath taking spectacle of order, connection and change.

What is a Murmuration?
  • A group movement of living beings.
What Do Murmurations Do?
  • Display a dazzling set of community behaviors.
How Does a Murmuration Happen?
  • Through a multitude of individual responses one to another.
What is the Result of a Murmuration?
  • A breath taking, incredible spectacle of order and change!
 
The Science Behind a Murmuration

Scientists once thought murmurations in nature were achieved through corporate responses to a sole leader sending out a signal.  A study published by the University of Rome has DISPROVED this theory.
 
It has been discovered that flocks of starling birds model a physical phenomenon called ‘Scale-Free Correlation’ to achieve a murmuration. Scale-Free Correlation may sound high flaunting, but it's simply "A change in behavior of one bird in relation to a neighboring bird which results in the community ordered movement of a murmuration". The power of one individual making one choice that positively affects one neighbor, one friend or one family member is why murmurations happen.
 
Murmurations create spontaneous group behaviors that bind one to another in unity and congruency. Each action of the individual dictates group behaviors and results in the achievement of the impossible!
 
TEAM is tangibly demonstrated in the animal kingdom through murmurations. Flocks of starling birds gather by the thousands to form a murmuration which displays dazzling community group behavior made up of multiple unique individual responses to one another. All resulting in a breath taking, incredible spectacle of order.
 
Watching a murmuration of starlings swirl, pulsate, draw together and then fan out in a synchronized flock formation is not only amazing and mesmerizing, it’s miraculous!
 
What Activates a Murmuration?

It is interesting to note that the origin of a starling murmuration is thought to arise as a response to a pending attack from a predator like a peregrine falcon. The community movement achieved by close connection and communication to fellow starlings allows the flock to achieve a state of oneness resulting in a collective behavior which achieves safety for each individual starling.
 
Our Murmuration

The threat tyranny represents globally requires a collective community response so a worldwide solution is found. It's why we engage in murmurations; so our goal of creating a free world is achieved.

TOGETHER we are stronger!
