This is great. About ~6 years ago there was a story on HN from MIT titled "Self-flying drone dips, darts and dives through trees at 30 mph"[0]. It was a fixed wing drone, rather cautiously flying near a few trees. At the time my comment was:

Now 6 years later, the drone seems almost on par with the capabilities of the goshawk. Pretty amazing!
