No rolling shutter by dave dube' Via Flickr: I didn't realize how distorted hummingbird wings can get with some of the new cameras with electronic shutters. Global shutter will be the major improvement but 2 brands have the problem controlled without the global shutter.

Snake Killer by Todd Wynia Via Flickr: We see the greater roadrunner a few times each year. They are about crow-sized and a pretty fierce predator. They can grab a rattlesnake behind the head and whap it against a rock to kill it before consuming it. (This bit may be gross, so feel free to stop reading) The snake too big to swallow in one go? No problem. Just leave the unswallowed bit dangle from your beak, while that part in your belly digests. Eventually, you digest the whole snake. That's pretty badass in my book. Roadrunners will take on pigeons, lizards, small mammals, you name it. They are rather opportunistic feeders and unafraid to take on whatever comes their way.
