雀鳥緣何群飛?- Hugo Sze
一項高難度挑戰,那麼雀鳥群飛的現象更加令人摸不著頭腦 — 鳥群如何做到動作一致的「飛翔表演」?
在北半球,一些候鳥到了秋冬時節,便會向南方遷徙,期間可在一個地區停留長達 6 週。於遷徙季節,群飛現象也會增加。以椋鳥(Starling)為例,鳥群停留期間,每日可能會飛至距離棲息樹超過 96 公里的地方覓食。而當牠們重新聚集時,群飛(murmuration)可持續長達 45 分鐘。
儘管椋鳥是常見鳥種,無處不在,但「國家地理頻道」文章指,人們對椋鳥群飛的理解一直所知不詳。為甚麼牠們這樣做?羅德島大學榮譽退休教授兼鳥類學家 Frank Heppner 坦言:「我從事這項研究有 50 年了,仍然不知道。」
其中一個解釋椋鳥群飛的原因,可能是躲避捕食者。羅馬大學物理學家 Andrea Cavagna 於過去 16 年,同樣研究椋鳥鳥群如何同步彼此動作,並做到精準優美。為此,他曾在羅馬五百人廣場(Piazza dei Cinquecento)錄影捕捉鳥群動作,然後製作出模擬牠們群飛的 3D 模型。
Cavagna 團隊認為,椋鳥是以「無尺度行為關連」(scale-free behavioral correlation)為機制,維持群飛隊形。每隻鳥會將自己定位於附近約 7 隻鳥身邊,一同協調彼此運動,從而同步。Cavagna 舉例:「情況就如公路上行駛的車輛一樣,你與周邊固定數量的車輛作出互動,並在它們的圍攏下行進。」由此,每隻鳥的運動,不僅受旁邊的同伴影響,更受整個鳥群所影響。文章稱,郊區的鳥群中,一隻鳥發出的轉向信號,只需半秒即可傳達給附近 400 隻鳥。
群飛期間,鳥群會整體呈現不同形狀,例如像流水一樣的黑帶(dark band)。若從地面觀察,這些波動(agitation waves)似乎是鳥群進一步聚集或分散,實際上,這可能是牠們轉向的徵兆。當鳥群顯得更為密集,表示牠們正轉往上側飛行;呈擴散狀時,則代表向下側飛。荷蘭格羅寧根大學進化生命科學教授 Charlotte Hemelrijk 表示,鳥群改變飛行模式,會令獵鷹等掠食者感到困惑,更難從中尋找獵物。
儘管如此,「保護彼此、躲避掠食者」仍不足以完全解釋長達 45 分鐘的群飛行為。因為雀鳥們大可直接一同飛回巢穴,毋須長時間在空中盤旋、消耗大量體力。而且,此舉無疑會吸引掠食者的注意,彷彿告訴對方,大餐就在眼前。有理論認為,群飛可以令雀鳥「圍爐取暖」(warmer together),一同保持體溫。但英國格羅斯特郡大學和皇家生物學學會(Royal Society of Biology)於 2017 年的研究表明,幾乎沒有證據支持此理論。
群飛的真正原因,學界目前未有定論。不過研究人員似乎也同意,這的確是一道生態美景。正如 Hemelrijk 所言:「假如不去考慮躲避掠食者的問題,我會將之視作舞蹈欣賞。雖說子非魚,但牠們可能一直處於激昂狀態,才會維持一段如此長的時間。」

I finally had the time to edit my progress workout video. Have been busy with other stuff lately that i didn't have the time to edit my progress video.
.
Wow it has been 24 session with @movability_calisthenics @bern_cw at @kungfudojosabah . I feel that I need to stretch my upper more coz my shoulders have a hard time to open and it tenses occasionally. I can't even do a full wheel pose becoz of this issue. I probably have to join @abigailphoebe class to practice opening my chest more.
.
Last Thursday session, starts with warm ups, followed by 10 reps of dislocate (wuah this hurts like I never work on my arms and shoulders). I also feel I have some kind of misalignment somewhat 🤔 followed by 30 sec bridge and 15 reps arms raise x 3 sets.
.
Followed by everything else on the video. I improved my dips yay. Wow the days when I keep doing a plank instead of dips 😂 and handstand hold on the wall. Practice free handstand, I had to practice crow instead coz my leg feels like it needed a break from everything.
.
Went to acupuncture to fix my issues yesterday instantly coz all I feel is agitation 🤣😅 teruk sudah baru pigi fix 🙈 sounds familiar?
.
I'll stretch more today 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
.
Thanks for watching 🤗

誰かに褒められたあの日も
嘲り罵られたあの日も
全て素敵な思い出だよ
嬉しくも悲しくもないけど
何年かが経った今日まで
ずっとこびりついてる
足取りは重くなっていく
この身に残されたのは、吐き出せない澱だけ
どれだけ背負えば終わり?
数えていたらキリが無い程
数多の呪いが纏わりついて
否定も肯定も同じ
真綿で首を絞めるように
少しずつ僕の心臓が軋んでいくみたいだ
愛を契り合ったあの日も
裏切り裏切られたあの日も
全て素敵な思い出だよ
時折恐ろしくなるけど
何十年か経ったとしても
忘れられないんだろう
呪いが僕を縛っていく
全てを抱えていくには、この器じゃ足りない
どれだけ背負えば終わり?
数えていたらキリが無い程
数多の呪いが纏わりついて
否定も肯定も同じ
真綿で首を絞めるように
少しずつ僕の心臓が軋んでいく
「優しい人であれ」と明日の僕を見張って
「お前には無理だ」と昨日の僕を見限ってきた
傷口に膿が溜まるような
数多の呪いで心臓が潰されていくんだ
agitation 在 MindBonnieSoul Youtube 的最佳解答
Bhramari pranayama is effective in instantly calming down the mind. It is one of the best breathing exercises to free the mind of agitation, frustration or anxiety and get rid of anger to a great extent.
The exhalation in this pranayama resembles the typical humming sound of a bee, which explains why it is named so.
