I saw the following link mentioned in an Alpine-L post, and thought it should also be posted here. It's a beautifully produced film with amazing photography. I believe the video was part of a TED Talk (http://www.ted.com/talks). Enjoy

I am in awe ... the future of natural history filming/capture is in very safe hands.
Isn't it strange, I never watched it when it was posted on Alpine_L, but clicked it immediately upon your recommendation Mark? ;)

True enough Cliff, when presented with a starting image and beckoning "start arrow", it is click-enticement. It is also "one click away" on a text-only Alpine-L message, but when there are so many text links among the dry body of text, it is easy to skip over them, versus being visually seduced into clicking ;). The YouTube "plugin" was installed on the forum (lower left button in the message editing tool set) to allow adding embedded YouTube links complete with an image.

Wow! Love the hummingbird aerobatics! What an incredible film clip!
:o :o :o :o :o (I would just keep going!)
The photography is stupendous! I particularly like the bats and how the moonlight showed through the wings revealing the skeletal fingers. And that must really be a feat carrying that large baby around...
