Bobwhite Blather has posted a new item, 'Flap your wings!'

A Scout unit can be compared to a bird in flight.

A healthy bird flies high, soaring with wings open and catching updrafts and
downdrafts. It might dip a bit here and there, but it catches another thermal
and continues to soar.

A newborn bird flaps its tiny wings mightily, desperately trying to catch air.
It might perch itself on the edge of the nest, take a leap of faith and go
"thud" on the ground. Mother bird might pick it up and place it back in the nest
for another try. If a predator doesn't get to it, it will keep flapping until it
finally struggles airborne enough to get back up to a tree branch. With enough
wingflap, it will eventually learn to sustain flight.
