Bird Brains, Road Ways

Jeff gets a feathered no-prize for bringing us this reuters article detailing a recent discovery about how pigeons navigate. Turns out, on short trips at least, they follow the roads, right down to intersections and traffic circles.

My grandad was famous for following highways and rail road tracks to find his way back and forth in his old Cessna. I guess we've found a likely reincarnation candidate for him!
