If the wings are spread and it is in gliding mode with minimal flapping, how much energy would it need to remain afloat? Moreover it might be catching and swallowing fish while in flight itself. May be can sleep while in glide mode too ... may just need minimal flapping to accomodate changes in wind through the subconscious? If you had waterproof skin, could you float on back in water while asleep? If the bird is at perfect ease with itself it may not need to land so often.Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16172354559026967788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5670929240268214947.post-48453492507367332002009-09-11T10:39:42.394+05:302009-09-11T10:39:42.394+05:30The boat sure looks comfy in the still photo but I...The boat sure looks comfy in the still photo but I'm sure it won’t look that way in a moving picture!!

Please update. Anyway, I support more stops. Take good care ….<br /><br />P.S. When you get back you will have to make me a Dosa (after suitable R&R) – would like to try one of yours.
