I posted the undersea version of this a few weeks back as an "OH HOLY CRAP" thing.
BBC video. There's a school of fish. One set of birds dives deep and drives up at them from underneath, herding them into a ball so they can get a fish more easily. The seagulls see this and start diving *from the top*, because now the fish are all close to the surface so the gulls can get them (gulls can't dive very far).
THEN THE SPERM WHALE SHOWS UP AND EATS THE ENTIRE BALL AND PROBABLY A BUNCH OF BIRDS IN A SINGLE PASS.
