This is true for birds as well as planes. Birds have many physical features, besides wings, that work together to enable them to fly. They need lightweight, streamlined, rigid structures for flight. The four forces of flight –weight, lift, drag and thrust – affect the flight of birds.

In a way, birds use a swimming motion to get the lift needed to fly.

They thrust down and when they're wings come back, they open up for air to flow through. They even look like at times like the wings are breaking in half between the primary and secondary feathers and diverts the flow downwards. So when they thrust down and the low pressure lifts them up at the same time. ]]> 2016-09-27 12:45:42 UTC https://padlet.com/walter_davis/birda/wish/126632125 https://padlet.com/walter_davis/birda/wish/126632417 Birds use their feathers,their power,and the structure of their wings to fly, there weight plays a big part on there flight that is why turkeys and chickens can not sustain flight.]]> 2016-09-27 12:46:34 UTC https://padlet.com/walter_davis/birda/wish/126632417 https://padlet.com/walter_davis/birda/wish/126632580  I learned mechanics of bird flight, with emphasis on the varied forms of bird's wings.]]> 2016-09-27 12:47:04 UTC https://padlet.com/walter_davis/birda/wish/126632580 https://padlet.com/walter_davis/birda/wish/126632825  It helps explain how birds fly A bird uses its legs to push off the ground into the air.

This is because the bones of birds are thin, light and hollow. The shape of a bird's body is like an aeroplane. It is narrow in the front and broad in the middle. This shape helps the bird to fly. In order to turn while flying, the bird uses its tail. Finally to stop, the bird spreads out its wings and stretches its feet to create a drag, which helps it to stop.]]> 2016-09-27 12:58:48 UTC https://padlet.com/walter_davis/birda/wish/126636944 https://padlet.com/walter_davis/birda/wish/126924024 Birds use their strong breast muscles to flap their wings and give them the thrust to move through out the air and fly.
