Flight of birds
Birds fly by generating lift through their wings, which shape the airflow to create an upward force. When they flap their wings, they push air downward, producing thrust that propels them forward. Their muscles and lightweight bones help optimize flight efficiency. Different flight styles, like gliding or flapping, allow birds to conserve energy or maneuver effectively. This combination of wing shape, muscle power, and control of airflow enables birds to navigate their environment with agility and precision.
