Lazy Floridian

Heh.
Some guy was taking "stock photos" of Dolphins Stadium before the Super Bowl when a turkey vulture came through the windshield, sat on the pilot's lap, and hitched a 20 mile ride to the airport where he then flew off.
There's video with a voiceover by the pilot talking about what happened.
 
It's pretty crappy video. Which is funny considering the guy who was doing the filming was a professional, he was getting paid to film the stadium after all.

You can kind of see the bird in the chopper and you can definitely see it fly away. For a second I was reminded of a scene from Dawn of the Dead (the 70s version, not the recent one) where I thought the lazy bird might fly into the rotor.

1 We are not all lazy. It is a fact that the farther south you get the lazier you are. Key West = Island Time. Miami = Siesta Time Tampa = Laid back Time Jacksonville = Georgia time

2 That's funny, I mostly hang out in the southern part of the state with yearly forays to the Tampa region.

You might not all be lazy, but you seem to have some lazy birds.
