It would allow him to continue partaking in his favorite activity: bird stalking.”
After the dead cat drone, Bart Jensen proceeded to create an ostrich copter, “I thought it was really funny to make fly a bird that can’t fly,” he told people who tried to understand WHY. Geez, there’s that European humour for you.
