Ni Hao Bye Bye!

Got a bunch of pictures that demonstrate an innovative use for motorcycles. It turns out that Chinese police uses a modified version of the Honda GL 1800 GoldWing to tow away illegally parked cars. The bikes have been reworked by a Swedish company named "Coming Through" that came up with this idea of having a highly maneuverable "tow truck". The Swedish website has some video clips of this autobot in action.

Good thing it doesn't live in our nature reserves :)

A great fragment from a British nature movie, showing the Australian Superb Lyrebird. The lyrebird mimics other birds' voices in nature, .... but also some unnatural ones, such as a camera shutter, a chainsaw, or a car alarm.
