It’s probably the quietest flock of birds you’ll ever see.
Ninety European Starlings are “living” outside Hideaway Pizza at 230 S. Knoblock St.
Students in an art class that teaches three-dimensional design created the birds.
Each student made two forms — one bird form in a standing position and another in a flying position, according to information from the art department.
For the next three weeks, the flock will arrive in a site for three days and, like their real-life counterparts, they will leave as a whole and land in another site in Stillwater, according to information from the art department.
They will migrate Thursday to another location.
The three sections of the class each pick a place for the birds to stay.
In nature, Starlings are stocky black birds with pointed, triangular wings, according to the Cornell University Lab of Ornithology Web site.
