Comment Comment by bmitc There's also bats who have much more flight control than birds. Since they have a hand in their wing which is covered with skin and muscle, they have a large amount of additional control over birds. Here's a great video of a study.https://youtu.be/BNNAxCuaYocAnd there's kestrels hovering. I have also seen hawks do this.https://youtu.be/7j6OsP7zL6whttps://youtu.be/mDRcLAkRZ50Edit: Now I've gotten on a YouTube binge and landed on New Zealand keas, which I didn't know about before. And damn are those birds intelligent. parent bmitc 4 years ago
