I decided to play around a bit with the NetLogo flocking demo. In the modified version you can watch the flock form from the perspective of one of the birds -- making the flock itself look more or less static. A few statistics are gathered showing how uniform the flock becomes.
To run it, download NetLogo<http://ccl.northwestern.edu/netlogo/download.shtml>and open the attached file. A bit more information is included in the Information tab. -- Russ
