Google doodles with search results

Google Doodles and holiday logos are the transformed Google logo to represent a special day or event. Currently they are running doodles showing the 2004 Summer Olympics. I recently noticed that they now have a mini version of the current doodle on the search results page too. That's great because I use the search box on Firefox or Safari for my searches and was missing out on the doodles.
