Fly Away Osprey- video


When the wind is just right, I like to fly this special kite. It's soothing to watch it climb and glide and fun to watch the reactions.

Groups of kids gather outside the fence and some run home and drag Mom or Dad back saying, "mira, mira!". Cars drive by, then reverse back for a double-take.

Some wonder why the thing flaps and flaps and makes no headway, and others must think "those gringos have an interesting pet", until they look a little closer.

To my suprise, the kite also attracts some very special visitors. Some fly over and call out as they pass by, and 1 or 2 will circle overhead for a while when they're returning from fishing.

And occasionally one will stop, and watch, and talk to it and I'd love to know what he's saying!

"Follow me, make a break for it. You've got the most spastic flight technique I've ever seen!"
