This is one of the most amazing things I have ever heard of. This bird flies over 8,000 Mi across the Pacific from Alaska to Australia without stopping... Source: X https://share.google/H0fmthPKPImiVjRfy

The left lane is for the the purpose of moving the flow of traffic forward regardless of the speed limit. If your impeding the flow of traffic get your ass in the right lane. It's really that simple...

Really does. That little joker averaged over 31 mph 24/7 for just over 11 days. Very impressive feat. I bet he was hungry, thirsty, and a sore little bird the morning after he landed.

11 days without sleep or even rest, constantly working day and night towards it's goal
11 days without food for energy
11 days without water
And I'm supposing a built in GPS system to boot.
Man has yet to design anything so amazing, and there are countless amazing things that animals can do. Sharks can smell a few drops of blood diluted in the ocean from a half mile away. Some frogs and bugs can shrivel up (literally dehydrate) and essentially die then come back to life when conditions are better. Caterpillars can metamorphosis into something that flys. Shrimp can live in near boiling hot water. A dog will lay down it's own life for yours. But still, there are those that believe life on earth is all just a cosmic coincidence.

Tardigrades are the some of the only life forms that we know of that can survive in space and survive atmospheric entry on asteroids. Some folks think they could be responsible for seeding life on Earth. Their DNA is made up of the same stuff as all other life on Earth.

God's creation never ceases to amaze. I read in that story that they have to constantly flap their wings for 11 days straight without food or sleep. And get this... They average 31 miles an our for the whole trip? Wouldn't it be ironic if the little dud makes it the whole way, he finally lands in Tasmania, "Whew!" and then some kid shithead kid with a Red Ryder pops his ass.

God's creation never ceases to amaze. Cracks me up when you see quotes like this in these write ups...."Their astonishing endurance, navigation skills, and energy management demonstrate biological capabilities that can match — and in some ways surpass — even the most advanced human engineering." Of course is surpasses human engineering....ITS A GOD THING
