Walk along the Sicilian seashore at the late October. Enough strong windy day. On the right Tyrrhenian sea, on the left bare patch of land full of birds screech. Suddenly, a flock of birds rises up and makes rotating training wheels. Clever decision. Strong and unfavorable wind direction requires to save strength for the long migration way despite the shores of Africa are at the shortest distance.
