I definitely noted the aerodynamics of their flight as they would funnel southerly close to our 20 x 150 x 750 building. Wind NE 10 mph. They glided along side and caught the up-draft on the west side of building and shot up 40-50 feet by the time they reached the south end of the building while hardly batting a wing.
