Good for you to have a camera/phone ready even in traffic!

I once had a mocking bird pick a fight with himself in my rearview mirror!

So, yea, hours.

Had my phone hanging from the windshield as my navigator.

The grackles were doing their regular grill breakfast; picking butterflies from the car grills and dipping under the cars to drink from the A/C condensation. Then this guy showed up to see what was happening.
