    B Why doesn't wind drag a hovering Kestrel bird backwards?

    Well, maybe I'm on the wrong forum. Thanks anyway.

    It's not fair to make a joke out of it. Of course, there is a logical answer to this. I just do not consider the answer that the bird uses an upward windblow the correct one. See here a tern hovering above a river. No hills, no dunes.

    So here is another one above open water. What now?

    If the answer is: wind blowing upwards and bird gliding downwards relative to the airflow, I just don't see the right angle of the bird's wings. Something awkward here.

    I know it's all about drag and lift, but why doesn't the wind drag this bird backwards?
