I nominate this bird for best cinematography in a documentary.

When I was a kid I was into model rocketry, and the catalogues offered cameras one could mount in the nosecone.

They would automatically click through about a dozen exposures, take it to your local camera shop, and you'd have pictures from above your front yard.

Now there's Google Earth.
