When Nature and Technology Converge

L'il Buddy wanted to take Harambee out for a bit today, and I wanted to test the new kill switch I installed (works perfectly), so away we went.

It never occurred to me to have him shut down the motor here, but it's not that obstructive and a reminder, I guess, of the convergence of the natural and human worlds. Enjoy (and try to ignore L'il Buddy's absurdity).

That Loon's short "song" was its unique and brief warning cry.

It's usually easy to look around to spot the "enemy". It can be an ultralight aircraft, an approaching loud speedboat, or a Bald Eagle.

By the way that Loon looked nervously with first one eye--then the other--points to the offender!
