Reproduction of an original woodcut titled, "Birdlife Biomimicry."
Birds are such fascinating creatures. Have you ever looked into the sky and wondered what a bird is thinking of us? This piece shows some ways that we have thought of birds and mimicked them including hot air balloons, helium balloons, boomerangs, whirligigs, origami, and kites.
"There are 3 types of biomimicry - one is copying shape and form, another is copying a process like photosynthesis in a leaf, and the third is mimicking at an ecosystem's level, like building a nature-inspired city," ~Ms. Benyus article from BBC
