...of the bird world. Well, the first photo would be the closest to compare with a B-2 Spirit, just the perspective....
Diving around a swamp the other day looking for photos of opportunities when I saw this Swallowtail Kite circling a pasture looking for critters of opportunity (dinner).
I quickly pulled off the road and shot out the window not wanting to take the time to get out since no matter how hard I try; I can never get really close to these beautiful creatures since they are always moving, and these striking birds ever stay in one place for very long. Cheers.

All flying birds have a tail. The concept of the flying wing makes a tail redundant.
Here’s the original precursor to the B2 (if we ignore several German WWII designs & non-flying prototypes):

Yep I remember when they used them to destroy the Martians....but alas, it was to no avail, they survived the blast.
