Why FLY when you can RIDE?

So last night I get a call from Zach telling me to come out to the garage. So I opened the door and this is what I see. This bird sat like this ALL the way back from his Home Teaching family which was close to a mile away. I have never seen anything like this before, I don't know what I would have done had I been the one driving. This bird posed for some pictures and then flew away. Interesting to say the least.
