Air Force works aggressively to reduce bird strikes
Keith Mutton, who helps to run the U.S. Air Force's Bird/Wildlife Aircraft Strike Hazard program at the Royal Air Force base in Mildenhall, England, rewards Goldie, a 9-year-old Moroccan lanner hawk, for helping to rid the base of birds. Goldie can launch from Mr. Mutton's arm at up to 40 mph to chase away and ward off unwanted birds that are safety threats. (U.S. Air Force photo/Lance Cheung)
