The Necessary Silhouette

I've got my suspicions that this wisdom from my 20's will come to serve me in the future.

sciencecenter:

I recently posted a video showing how hummingbirds dry off in a fashion remarkably similar to dogs. The 8-ounce birds throw off water droplets by whipping their bodies around at a rate of 132 times per second, and rotating their heads an astounding 202 degrees in either direction. All the while, the hummingbird has to, ya know, continue flying. Well, Robert Krulwich of NPR has done me one better and posted some pretty epic photographs of dogs drying themselves off, taken by Carli Davidson.

Don’t laugh - it’s for science!
