Routing - 9-13-10

Over the weekend the birds were flow 2X a day. The flights were typical: short bursts followed by quick returns to the loft. Even though I used the black flag to send them back up again, they still landed quickly.

I moved to a new position with the flag and tried to keep them up on the Sunday evening flight. They really stayed in the air for a period of time (including some rather hysterically funny attempts to land on a palm tree branch). This morning I didn't flag much - but for the first time noticed they were out of sight for a few minutes. Finally, I came inside and they returned and trapped on their own. I hope this means that they started their routing.

Good omen.
