yes they fly for fun
i used to work in a warehouse that had pigeons and doves inside flying around, i'm a fork-lift driver by the way, when we drove in and out of sections to pick or place an item the birds would fly within inchs of the trucks, i believed they were playing the equivalent of the great kids game 'chicken' where you try to run accross a road infront of a car.
stupid game i know, but alot of kids are stupid.
i would if i copuld fly
I tried to fly once with i was lil and umm let just say it didnt work out. I broke my leg. :( poor me.

Pidgeons /doves are extremely intelligent and have strong family and social ties. They absolutely love to fly. They perform intricate flying maneuvers and compete in groups to see who can execute the most elaborate routines.
Turkeys are very social and have elaborate social communication. They only fly short distance to reach roost or avoid danger...except when they are young and very much enjoy to fly about the yard showing off to each other. He who flies longer impresses the rest and gets respect for their skills. Once they heavy up they cant do this anymore but they will have established their rep as a strong bird.
The pheasants dont seem to do much flying here. No real need to.
The guinea fowl, maybe they are smart but appear rather simple minded and kinda retarded at times. They will fly all right, right into shit in a panic whenever I approach or make eye contact. I swear one of those dumbassea are gonna have a stroke or hit a wall too hard and die!
peace.
id love to fly!!!!!!!!!!!!! yes!
Of course birds do... I would to,but I flew to close to the sun one time,,,long story...
yes i think they like to fly for fun, i have a couple parrots and they like flying around for no good reason. they also like to rip up papers, steal keys, press buttons on remote controls and lots of other pointless things they probably find fun.
Shamanic techniques could allow someone to turn into a bird or just about any animal using entheogens . Wouldn't it be nice to perceive and act like a bird or a dolphin for a day? :stoned:
Birds aren't highly intelligent animals, they can't comprehend fun, hate, want, they just do what they need to do to survive. And flying is way of survival.
I don't think they fly for fun, i think its just reflex and nature to get around. I think they go through garbage cans for fun...Quote:

well hey, i run for fun!
No, I think they fly for the same reason we walk, flying might not be as fascinating to them as it is to us since they do it all the time.
Theyve flown their whole lives im sure theyre bored of it pretty quickly. I doubt they have the capacity to experience fun too.
i like the way you think, very creative :thumbsup:Quote:

Birds seem to fly as a defence mechanism, and a way to sustain themselves. Thats what protects them from most predators. Since they are very small, they have evolved to meet the challenges they face. Other than that..., i rekon they fly because they think they can.:confused:Quote:

I am so glad that there are other people who take time to reflect and notice things like this... a lot of people would be too consumed with their day to day life to even notice. Thank you for making people stop and reflect.
Maybe the bird was exercising, looking for something, was confused about where to go, etc etc etc but I don't think it was for fun. Like alot of people said, it's like if after a long day of walking everywhere, we decide the best way to take load off is to..walk? Probably not, many birds fly for over 70% of their waking life, to do things they have to do to live. If they had the presence of mind to think of their #1 mode of survival, defense, and travel as "fun", I'm sure they'd be long bored of it after an hour of being awake.Quote:
