List of some birds who dusn't fly.

Have you ever thought that you were an eagle, higher than a prairie? How is the mythical phoenix rising from the ashes? For centuries, people have seen birds feathering and felt a bit jealous. But what about birds that do not fly? You would think that they would not complain against their freewheeling cousins, but these people are very good in themselves. These eight birds cannot fly, but you should probably envy them anyway.

8.Steamer Duck:

Three out of four species of steamer ducks are flightless, but should not be played with four out of four species. Even within flying species, some males are actually too heavy to achieve liftoff. These South American ducks earned their name by running across the water and spreading their wings like a wheel on a steamer. They also use them for other forms of thrashing. Family-aggressive, the steamer duck is known to engage in epic, bloody battles with each other over territorial disputes. They are known to kill waterbirds many times by their size.

7.Ostrich:

The powerful ostrich is actually the king of birds. The largest living bird, the ostrich can be 9 feet tall and weigh more than 300 pounds. Their eggs are, appropriately, the world's largest — about 5 inches in diameter and 3 pounds in weight. Their powerful legs can kick in defense, and they can run at speeds up to 45 mph in the open lands of Africa, where they live. And if that's not enough, they have long, luxurious eyelashes to boot.

6.Penguin:

No list of flightless birds would be complete without penguins. All 18 species of penguins are unable to fly and are actually better built for swimming and diving, which they spend the majority of their time with. His short legs and stocky build give him a distinctive waddling walk. While people associate penguins with Antarctica, most species live in high latitudes. Some also live in temperate climates, and Galápagos penguins actually live on the equator. These birds are also remarkably romantic — penguins are largely monogamous and seek the same mate every season, even hundreds or thousands of birds that live in their colony.

5.Weka:

Vika is another bird from New Zealand. This brown, chicken-shaped bird was an important resource for native New Zealand and European residents but is now dwindling in numbers. Although they may sound supernatural, Vika has a loud call that men and women sing as a duet. They are also known as clever thieves and will steal food and small items to their liking and join them. He is also a skilled swimmer.

4.Kakapo:

Kakapo, also known as the "Owl Parrot", is a native of New Zealand. This nocturnal parrot has an owl's face, a penguin's stance, and a duck's gait. It is indeed a strange bird - but it is also a beautiful one, with bright greenish-brown feathers. It can grow up to 2 feet in length and is the heaviest parrot in the world. Males make a distinctive booming call, which sounds like a one-bird jug band, which can be heard from up to half a mile away!

3.Kiwi:

There are five species of kiwi, brown chicken-sized birds found in New Zealand. They have hidden feathers and soft, hairy feathers. Unlike other birds, the kiwi has its nostrils at the tip of its bill instead of the base. These strange little birds are admirable, however - the female lays eggs that can be up to 1 pound in weight. Relative to the size of the bird, it is the largest egg of any living species.

2.Takahe:

This mid-size bird from New Zealand is a master of hiding. It was thought to be extinct from the late 1800s until it was suddenly rediscovered in 1948. It is a colorful character, as well, with a bright blue and green layer and a red bill. And for a bird, Takeh has remarkable longevity - it can live up to 20 years.

1.Cassowary:

Caspari is a bird you do not want to play with. Native to Australia and the surrounding islands, this giant bird is in the heavyweight category. The only bird is the heavy ostrich. As if that is not enough, Casoveri is a wicked dagger-like claw that can grow up to 4 inches at the middle toe of each foot and they are known to kill humans. If lethal power is not your thing, however, you can still admire the style of the crossover. These birds are made of colored helmets, or Kesari, keratin (such as human fingernails). And their plush feathers like glamorous fur caps.
