Watched a large bunch of them in Sask a few yrs back, maybe 1500, while hunting spring snows. We had them almost on our blinds they came in so nice, 6 ft above us. Watched them jink down from maybe 3-500ft right in to us. Then watched some hitting thermals and making like eagles, climbing to maybe
to 3-5000ft with the sun highlighting them against the dark clouds and them hitting open sunny spots up between the clouds behind them. Had to use binos to see them, but that impressed me. They can certainly fly with grace and agility when they want to.
