"Howard R. Trojanowski, a Pierre-bound, 2-year-old field sparrow
who had been licensed to fly since two weeks after he was hatched
and had logged over 60,000 flying hours, departed from a ledge
near Sioux Falls Regional Airport at 11:04 a.m. CST. Trojanowski
never reached his intended tree branch, instead striking a
tempered-glass picture window 2.5 miles northwest of Mitchell 74
minutes after takeoff at an estimated speed of 39 mph."

Kangaroo.
