Wingless Bird

I am the black child of a white father, a wingless bird, flying even to the clouds of heaven. I give birth to tears of mourning in pupils that meet me, even though there is no cause for grief, and at once on my birth, I am dissolved into air. What am I?

This is the oldest riddle that I have heard.

Once there was a man who was travelling with a Tiger, goat and grass.
He needs to cross a river that can carry a maximum of two i.e. Man + one of Tiger goat or grass. But the problem is "If he takes the lion with him, the goat will eat grass and if he takes grass with him, the lion will eat the goat".

How can he ensure the safe delivery of all three?
