I thought this might interest some here. What will they think of next?

Nature on PBS has a whole series featuring these amazing spy creatures.

The first episode of season 2 which aired this week on most stations featured a frigate bird which could fly (like a drone), then lower his legs, spread his feet and land on the beach!

The episodes can usually be streamed for free just after airing, then require a PBS memebership.

Who is taking the video of the hummingbird-drone?

Perhaps a bumble bee drone?

I watched both links this morning and they are fascinating. I too could not help wondering how all that wonderful video footage from all those angles and perspectives were done. Either way, this wonderful.

The critter-cams are amazing. Last year there was a snowball one for observing Polar Bears. If I remember correctly at least one of those was destroyed.
