Bird takes on Boeing in drag race

In a never-before-seen photograph, a bird was captured racing Boeing's most modern jet; the Dreamliner 787.
A true David and Goliath battle, with the Dreamliner powered by two Rolls Royce Trent 1000 engines carrying a maximum speed of 954kph, and the bird powered by two feathered wings, with a maximum speed of ... maybe 40kph.
Adding to the jet's advantage, was it's 57 metre length, compared to the birds 15cm body.
Who won this epic battle between bird and Boeing? Would nature triumph over the latest in flying technology??
The bird ... lost by so much it looked like it was flying backwards. Sorry nature buffs - the jet wins.
