Eagles In Flight... From the eagle's perspective!

Postby NikonUser on Sat Jul 01, 2006 2:17 pm

Hi there,

I came across this link on my web travels and found it very fascinating. Thought some fellow bird lovers might find it interesting.

It's views from cameras that are attached to an eagle in flight.

Probably needs a broadband connection for best results

Poor Tilly... that's similar video technology to that which I use on my UAV's. I wonder if poor Tilly will end up with brain cancer from the wireless transmitter strapped strapped to his body :? .
