  A comment on Talk: A robot that flies like a bird

  Jul 22 2011: For me, this was one of the best TED tech demo ever...
  During the pic-nic after the conference, they made it fly again outdoor.
  The seagulls around were literally crazy about this "seagulliver" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gulliver%27s_Travels)
  
  I took a lot of photos during the picnic, they are on flickr : http://www.flickr.com/photos/mikiane/5944199868/in/set-72157627209731542
