They say birds of a feather flock together, and these beautiful starlings make the perfect pair - even though there are thousands of them.
An extraordinary image captured above Didcot Power Station shows a gigantic cloud of birds forming the shape of a two in the sky.
The remarkable spectacle appeared over the Oxfordshire landmark at the end of a cloudless day.
Photographer George Reszeter captured the moment after waiting patiently beside the power station in the hope of witnessing the event, having heard of its beauty a year earlier.
The 59-year-old, from Abingdon, described the sight as 'sheer bliss', with the birds appearing to come out of nowhere.
He said: 'I arrived at about 3.30pm and waited, wondering if I was in the correct location.
'I had heard about this roost last year and, for various reasons, never managed to get there, but that afternoon I decided to make the effort.
'At about 4.10pm, the first trickle of birds started to arrive and, within minutes, the sky was swirling with starlings - there were thousands of them.
