*_The Eyes of Eagles_*
An eagle's flight from the top of the world's tallest building
to his handler below. An eagle was fitted with a camera and
released from the top of the 2,715 foot Burj Khalifa tower in Dubai.
The eagle has no idea where the tiny speck of land was that his
handler is standing on or what it looked like among all of the
other islands and buildings and people. Somehow from that
altitude, the eagle actually picks out and recognizes the
trainer from all of the other objects, people, etc. You can see
him looking, looking, looking for the trainer, completely
invisible toa human eye and the camera, then fold his/her wings
and then drops like a bullet straight to that trainer... very cool.
What surprised the experts is not only how efficiently the eagle
spots his trainer from that altitude, but how smooth its flight
is with no camera shake whatsoever, even when it goes into a
power dive.
