Answer:

Because hot air rises up during day time, and a convection current is developed. So kites and eagles start moving along this convectional current without happing their wings.

Briefly explain why do the kites and eagles fly without flapping their wings

Explanation:

kites are fascinating creatures. They are capable of something man can only dream of: self-propelled, self-sustained, flight. They are reliant only on themselves and their inborn traits and skills to keep them aloft in the air. While man can fly on airplanes or wind surf, it is much different from having wings and truly flying.

While all kites (with a few notable exceptions) can fly, they are not all capable of the same type of flight. Some birds are naturally much more powerful and skilled fliers than others. For example, while both the pigeon and the falcon are both species of birds, the falcon is a far superior flier. When diving, the peregrine falcon can achieve speeds of up to two-hundred miles per hour!

Many of these differences stem from more active lifestyles. kites like vultures, kites, and eagles do not pick and eat grain on the ground like pigeons do. Nor do they eat insects, as they would have to consume an exorbitant amount to get their daily nutritional needs. Because of this, they hunt small to medium sized game.

The key word there is hunt. Hunting by nature can be a very time-consuming process. Hunting birds need the ability to remain in the air for long periods of time. Not only does flying give them the advantage of a “bird’s eye view”, but it also allows them to pounce on their prey from the air. A falcon in search of prey may spend hours and scour miles worth of ground before finding suitable prey. A carrion bird like a vulture spends long amounts of time finding a carcass to consume. All of these precludes a need to stay in the air for long periods of time without spending an exorbitant amount of energy.
