Monday, 7:14 a.m.
Subject displays characteristic aerodynamic posture—
shoulders angled 12° into prevailing westerly,
papers clutched against thorax like a kite's crossbar.
Nest-building behavior observed at 0843h:
stacking of rectangular objects (manila, cream, digital)
into load-bearing configurations.
At 1507h, a rapid shift in flight pattern—
the subject banks hard toward a smaller structure,
where two juveniles wait at the entrance
with their mouths open.
Wind speed: 38 km/h, gusting to 47.
Cloud cover: scattered.
The subject appears to confuse productivity
with lift.
Both, it should be noted, require
the same thing: moving forward
fast enough that falling
becomes indistinguishable
from flight.
