There are many things in the world around us that just seem to grab our attention. One of those things that we may see on a daily basis are trees, and they have a degree of beauty that is difficult to describe.

Perhaps that is why we are not surprised that a man is holding a camera and taking a video of a tree in the distance. It doesn’t seem like much, but the tree does have a certain beauty to it when you see it’s silhouette against the evening sky.

At some point in the video, you may begin to wonder why the man is taking the video of the tree. There are some birds flying around and you hear a lot of bird noises, but it isn’t until about 18 seconds into the video that something takes place.

At that moment, the tree is turned into something else. It is a transformation that only takes a split second, and it begins with somebody firing a shot in the distance.

After the shot is fired, thousands upon thousands of birds exit the tree and begin flying in all directions. They split up into two large flocks and fly off into the distance.

What was probably considered a nuisance by the homeowner who had the tree in his backyard turned into a beautiful site of nature in action. You can watch it for yourself in the amazing video below:
