Gliders are often towed up and let go to find their way back to the airport.
On my 60th birthday I took a ride in an ultra-light and loved every moment of it.

Boat-tailed grackles are interesting mimics. They like to mimic sirens, bells and whistles. Often seen in huge groups swooping around open spaces or individuals calling to each other. I think these birds were probably the inspiration for Alfred Hitchock’s famous movie “The Birds”.
