How do birds fly when gravitational pull is pulling them down?
Gravitation pulls everything down (people, rocks, birds, planes..) It takes a force to counter the pull of gravity; in birds' case, it's lift from the birds wing. As air flows past the wing the fact that the length of chord of the upper wing is slightly longer then the length of the chord of the bottom of the wing - this induces a difference in flow speed and creates a slight upward force called lift. The faster a bird goes, the higher the lift (to a limit.) The longer the wing, the more lift is generated - this is why bird with very long wingspans can travel long distances and go very high compared to birds with shorter wings.*If a bird's wing cannot generate enough lift, the bird will fall to the ground: they must overcome the pull of gravity. * Note - high speeds are counter to large wings, hawks have shorter and swept vs broad wings on Eagles. The Eagles can go higher and longer, but the Hawks can go faster for short periods of time.
