They say that a California condor in distant flight can be mistaken for a small aircraft.

But this giant crow takes the cake!

Just imagine, big naked birds all over the yard! The gators would love that!

	Gods Graves Glyphs	Thanks JoeProBono. An extinct bird the size of a Cessna airplane and weighing as much as an average human was one of the largest birds to have ever flown the friendly skies. Scientists have wondered how the bird, called Argentavis magnificens, could balloon to such heft (more than 150 pounds, or 70 kg) and still replace its feathers during a molt. Now, new research reveals the bird, which lived 6 million years ago in the Miocene epoch, likely molted all of its feathers at once during a long fast. Lions don't molt! No, but penguins do! There! I run rings around you logically! Just adding to the catalog, not sending a general distribution. To all -- please ping me to other topics which are appropriate for the GGG list.

It was lucky of them to stumble across a flock of these birds to research, so they could watch them all fast and molt.
