Got a great view of the Shuttle/ISS as they went overhead this evening. Strange, but large flocks of what I thought were geese, kept interrupting my view in the dark. Maybe I should have looked closer.

The launch team also uses radar to watch for birds before a shuttle liftoff.

No bat tracking ability??? ;-)
