Creatures of air
Jan. 5th, 2007 02:12 pmIt is a stupendously nice day outside. 68F, sunny, not much of a wind. Apparently a lot of the local pleasure pilots had the same idea I did about getting out in it; while I was out in the back, I saw two little prop planes in the sky. Usually I can hear them just fine, but rarely do I see them. (I live literally ten minutes from the international airport. There is a runway three-quarters of a mile from my house. I can not only see the livery of each commercial jet that passes, I can count the windows, and can almost see the people inside.)
I also saw the hawk that lives in our neighborhood, cruising the sky for little furry or feathered things that don't hide quickly enough. Lots of interesting things in the sky today.
