The Slow-Motion Art of Birds Flying
Birds have bodies that are designed to make them great fliers! According to Fact Monster, "The skeleton is strong but light, with a large breastbone to support powerful muscles for flapping wings up and down. The wings themselves are curved on top, flatter beneath—air travels faster over the upper surface, producing lift. The long tail helps with direction and balance; strong legs assist with takeoff." Don't you wish you could fly, too?
