Speaking as a long-time keeper of birds, especially parrots, they are probably the most visually oriented and sensitive of all animals. I have also seen wild birds fighting over territory and it is magnificent and terrifying. I have more than once thought it's a really good thing for us that birds are usually small -- if in our species development early on we had to compete with really large parrots (5 or 6 feet tall), I don't know that primates would have done so well.

They ARE dinosaurs, after all!

Very occasionally they do I suspect, but I totally agree with your sentiments, I am always impressed at how fast flocks of parrots go past our house, they are blisteringly fast and in close formation, but they hold it together. I also enjoy watching the territorial birds dogfight for over the backyard - amazing ability and skills - brilliant stuff.

I would suggest that is what tens of millions of years of evolution can do for you.  We need to practice A LOT MORE!

:)  *flapping arms at desk...* hmmmm....  Long way to go for our species before we master that lill trick natively.

cheers
