Hunting for Understanding

Ideas shared by humans and other living species are amazing. I want to share an example with you.
In my last post on beBee and shared on LinkedIn describes the OTHERS Loop, the product of the ingenious mind of Rod King, Ph.D.
I extended the idea to represent it as Fibonacci rectangles leading to the formation of a spiral. For reasoning and great discussions on this suggest you may refer to my LinkedIn post published in November 2015.

While doing some research I found a post published by Chris Lawer in 2017that offers thinking along the same line Image below). The author presents great ideas on improving the value of health services and the reasoning for suggesting a Fibonacci-based structure.

I believe that there exists nothing in nature that nobody else didn’t think of. I was surprised while searching information to run across a post that describes how falcons catch their preys. Falcons have a problem as they need to turn their heads 40 degrees to be able to constantly observe their prey. This is energy-exhausting demand. To overcome it, falcons follow a bath that is again a Fibonacci-based rectangular path. This is explained in this splendid post. “falcons have developed an energy efficient spiral to keep their prey always in eye line. Pretty ingenious!
So, falcons make a spiral down to their prey. I encourage you to imagine a Nautilus Shell with is outer point stretched toward the prey and the wider sections of the shell spiraling up into the air. The falcon follows a spiral down to the prey on the exact same path of the imaginary Nautilus shell. The falcon’s flight path of least resistance that allows full view of their prey always is the same spiral that creates sea shells! Nature is amazing to be so consistent”!
To emulate the Nautilus Shell, I redrew the OTHER Loop in a similar fashion.
This comparison brings the attention to a hugely-important point that Harvey Lloyd mentioned in his comments on my previous post (when it was still accessible). He wrote “I also liked the way you used the fractal to describe a process. Very tangible. I have to go back to my pie picture and state that what happens when you have four or five of these fractals playing out in the same conversation? Some may spell other backwards within the fractal. Placing O in section 5. This is where leaders can use your fractal in ensuring that all are on the same page of the process”.
The falcons are like a Nautilus Shell with is outer point stretched toward the prey and the wider sections of the shell spiraling up into the air. Would you place the O of Observe in section 1, or preferably in section 5 and generate a downward fractal? I leave this for discussions. I can think also of other applications that make this question very important. If a writer is a falcon chasing an idea (prey) would he/she put Observe in section 1 or section 5?
Our world is amazing. Falcons have discovered the Fibonacci-based paths before we humans did.

Thank you so much for your great comment Harvey Lloyd. Yes, in soaring high we should never lose sight of the prey (goal in our case). We should keep our eyes open to see the goal and never lose sight of it. WE may learn a lot from mother nature.

True and necessity isn't limited to humans. Zacharias \ud83d\udc1d Voulgaris- what I enjoy about your comments is that you read the buzz and single out a focal point. Yes, you are correct and we need to rival the know-how of eagles, bees, ants and so many other species.

That is very considerate of you dear Franci\ud83d\udc1dEugenia Hoffman, beBee Brand Ambassador. I have already joined the hive and I am delighted with your forming this hive and honoring me with it. Too humbled to make any suggestion.

Thank you for your gorgeous comment Debasish Majumder. It is keeping the body in balance and spending the least energy for the right moment of the predator to go with speed to catch its prey. Yes, falcons teach as that speed at the right moment is crucial. It also teaches us how to walk towards our preys (here it means opportunities".

The falcon knows how to "swim" in the air before plunging to catch its prey. Your example is great Jennifer Leach-Trask and this is what falcons perfect in the air so as not to tire their bodies. May be we could develop swimming in water accordingly. We tend to swim in a line. It is the shortest distance, but not the least in energy requirement. It is amazing that falcons swim in a spiral path that is almost resistant-free. Thank you for your kind and appreciative words.

This is a wise comment Roberto De la Cruz Utria. yes, we need to widen the possibilities, experiences to broaden our scope and learn effectively. Like falcons, we need to do this with brave hearts that aren't paralyzed by fear.

I only wish to add to your clear and self-explanatory comment is the action itself should be sound and serves the purpose. The falcon takes action with the supportive movement and the right time with tireless ambition and will. Great comment my friend.
