If a bird is just gliding (or "soaring"), that is, not flapping its wings, it flies in pretty much the same way that an airplane flies. The wings push air down, so by Newton's third law the air must push them up. Partly, the push comes from the angle the wings are held at and partly from the curvature of the wings. The air travels faster above the bird's wing than it does below, and this makes the pressure lower above the wing. Birds have a lot of adaptations for flight. Their bones are hollow and light, but strong, They have light feathers which catch the air. They can fold up their wings when they are not in use. Their lungs are extra efficient at extracting oxygen from the air (we huff and puff when running, and flying is much harder!). They eat huge amounts of high-energy food, relative to their body weight. In regards to speed, birds generally follow the facetious advice often given to pilots -- "fly low and slow." Most bird's cruise speeds are in the 20-to-30-mph range.

It is advised that pregnant women as well as nursing moms should not use skin brighteners. However, there are some skin brightener products on the market today that claim to be safe for pregnant women because the product does not contain hydroquinone.
