In 2000-2001 we performed long-term spectroscopic monitoring of a sample of bright OB-supergiants aimed at establishing the incidence of co-rotating, large-scale wind structures. In the optical, this can be achieved by detecting rotationally modulated variability in Hα . Practically all the surveyed stars show dramatic line-profile variations operating on a daily (and in some cases on a hourly) timescale. Here we discuss the case of HD 14134 (B3 Ia) where a periodic modulation seen in the optical continuum (stellar surface, P=12.825d) triggers spectacular variations in the Hα emission line (stellar wind).
