Omg, are they sooo huge? I just realised how big they are for the first time in my life. What a sight! [edit] 172ft = 52m wingspan!

  They have pretty big appetites, they eat a lot.

  They don't really seem that big in person. And they're amazingly hard to see from any distance since they're essentially just a thin flat airfoil. Here's a not-especially-good video I just uploaded of one flying over my farm from this summer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GyXSuFj0naQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GyXSuFj0naQ

    +1 to your farm's beauty. Would you be open to hosting me for a day or two there?!

  I was blessed by a low flyover in Lancaster, CA back in '94 or so. It's absolutely stunning to have something that big and that quiet glide over you.
