A great example of convergence in the natural world I once saw was drops of water falling off a gutter from about 10 feet in the air. There was very little wind, and the drops fell on a line right under the gutter. It was immediately clear that the drops landed in a roughly normal distribution with their random fall through the air, and the pattern of wet pavement they produced was a perfect little compressed bell curve. It was quite beautiful.
