Yesterday was shooting Normal / HLG/ D-Log M test.

And captured one of those moments you can’t plan.

Fly safe.

Wow, that was close, as you stated there’s no planning something like that. Really glad there was no contact with your drone. Just flying by and not an Attack.

That was close. I think had you not stopped going forward, you would have colided with that last bunch.

This is the full horizontal video - it is interesting how they split in the first attempt.

And also they were pretty far away but yet found me

Birds have built-in "obstacle avoidance," too, especially when flying together in flocks. They still get chewed up by fast moving jet engines, but our avoiding drones is like avoiding another bird flying at them. Never heard of a mid-air accidental bird on bird collisions. They also don't run into each other when flying erraticallyin a flock. Very similar to drones not running into each other in a drone show display, consisting of 1000 drones.
