What's the Most Surprising Animal You've Seen Fly?

i chose that because that was the only animal ive seen fly. but it was on tv.

oh yeah that too.

well i was actually riding my cow (my cousins and i always ride the cows) and it flew over the paddock fence (well tried to anyway, he kinda landed ontop of the fence then went crazy cause of the barb wire) lol and i was on him the whole time :/

I'm from Cincinnati, pigs fly all over the place here.

I know, I have seen those cons!!!! lol

I would have liked to see the cow although

I call him Turduckin

Saw a horse fly over a fence one time. It was during an earthquake however.

the day i see that.....lol

I saw flying fish in the Philippines.

The ostrich I saw flying actually had purple feathers, the exact color of the check mark and vote total above. Feathers are great, much better than hair. Hair only comes in a few basic colors, like brown and black and blond and blue, but feathers come in all the colors of the rainbow. I wish I had feathers.

They look funny doin it to

I was an Air Traffic Controller in the Air Force. I heard pilots report hitting animals, other than birds, at relatively high altitude. Snakes were the most common. I don't explain em. I just report the reports. But I can tell you that I did personally receive reports from pilots that they had just hit a snake at 1200 feet above ground.

There's been a few flying monkey battles at my house. Sometimes the flying chicken joins in.

I know someone who lives in central Kansas who says that during a tornado monkeys sometimes do fly!

Once driving south ahead of a line of thunderstorms I saw what looked like a scene from the Wizard of Oz. This doesn't really convey it but what I saw were what I estimated by gridcount method to be upwards of 200 Turkey Vultures all gliding, wings tucked back, in the same direction I was going and all one altitude and DESCENDING - just ahead of the squall line apparently wet and racing to dryer air and sunshine where they could soar once again as they are generally seen. But these weren't doing anything like that.
I first spotted one large formation out my right hand side then looked around to my left and saw at least as many more - roughly 100 on either side. I was surrounded!
Now and then one would flap to stay airborne then another and it would progress like dominoes for a little then they would all resume gliding. I only wish I had had a video cam as I would have recorded a once-in-a lifetime sight like a movie scene out of Hollywood.

glad it wasn't this scene

a humminbird is the most impressive flyer. it hovers, and without seeing it move, it appears in another place in an instant.

Since hummingbirds are vertebrates with aerodynamically-refined wings it's not exaggerating to say they can outfly a bee! Truly amazing animals.

Just like a flying dodo then! Hahaha
Ah, and I read about "flying pigs" in class on the Tornado topic..lol

Flying monkeys!

how about

Pretty cute!

Actually, it was not a squirrel. It was a wild rabbit. Wow, can they move. All you see is a white dot (their tail). They can cover an acre in a split second. My dogs don't stand a chance catching one. LOL

Actually my dog stepped on a wasp nest man she flew.

He flew...but not on his own...

I have also seen rats leap 2 feet across an obstacle.

Actually, a cockroach. Freaked me out many years ago.

i was thinking the same thing man,who knew.

This is one of the dumbest questions I have ever answered....

When I was 10 years old, me and my cousin were pelted when hundreds (maybe thousands) of minnows fell from the sky at a campground in southern Louisiana.

lol...
