Thousands of bats formed a mesmerising snake-shaped swarm in the sky.

Footage shows the flying mammals in a long and synchronous pattern as the sun set in Nakhon Ratchasima province, Thailand on April 8.

The massive formation was seen passing above a village where astonished residents watched.

Onlooker Suthama Kusantia said: ‘We see them like that most of the week, but there are days where they split up. They live in a cave near our village.'

The formation of flocks called murmuration is usually observed in birds but other species such as bats and bees do this to travel safely together.
