We woke up early this morning, went to our favorite (and only) neighborhood coffee shop and walked with the dogs near the Mississippi River. We live just blocks away from it and recently discovered the most charming park that we never knew existed. While walking along one of the paths we found a Great Blue Heron rookery! We have counted at LEAST 40 nests. It is amazing and beautiful. Everywhere you look just on the other side of the river you can see these spectacular birds.

Seagull death
These two guys were going 180mph in a Mitsubishi Evo and ended up hitting a seagull. It's exactly what you're imagining, so if the idea of hitting a bird at that speed disturbs you don't watch the video.
One more clip after the jump, showing the speedometer maxed out right before impact.
