'Welcome to Chicago': Woodpecker clings onto driver's windowsill as it gets a gusty sightseeing tour of the Windy City

Towards the end of the sightseeing trip, the animal decides to hop inside the car and snuggle up to its tour guide.

Wow!

The video in the article didn't play for me, but I found it on YouTube here. The poor thing seemed stunned, like maybe it had flown into a window and was temporarily in a daze. I wonder if the guy didn't inadvertently save its life.

This is why I LOVE animals! They can be so incredibly random sometimes, doing things completely against their nature. It makes you wonder if they understand what is happening or if they are doing things on purpose. It reminds me of a video of someone trying to release a bird, and how it kept coming back to it's caretaker. Although it's silly to project our human emotions on these creatures, I find so much joy in it anyway.

Now that's cute. Makes me think of New System. Can't happen too soon for me.
