I reckon a Pelican would easily be able to get a skateboard rolling. I’m just now sure the best steps to proceed testing it.

I’d try a skateboard at the top of a hill and see about getting a cockatoo to somehow get the board to roll under it’s own propulsion so it can sit back and enjoy a ride down a hill. That’d be the way I’d try if I wanted the bird to do it repeatedly.

Edit: my comment isn’t about exactly the same thing, but …

Some new camera tech might be opening a can of worms about whether what’s pictured can be taken literally.

There was a story late last year of a woman trying on a wedding dress in front of two mirrors and someone snapped a photo.

When they looked at it, the reflection on the left mirror had a different pose to the reflection on The right mirror.

And this cast doubt on what exactly was going on the moment the shutter was pressed.

It looks like the camera had one of the stitch together the best photo of the people pictured (e.g. don’t show shots of people blinking etc) and it treated the mirror images as different people.
