How does a convection current enable a hawk or eagle to soar upward without flapping its wings?
A convection current is a mass of warm air moving upwards because it is less dense than the air around it. These currents are usually called "Thermals" and care capped at their top by a cumulus cloud. If a bird can find the rising column of air that is a thermal and circle round in it, the bird is carried aloft with the air, without the need to flap its wings.
