No, swifts don't fly in the sky all the time, ornithologists have found that some healthy swifts can't use their feet to help them take off, although they can't use their feet to help them take off, but they can fly with a few flutters of their wings. Therefore, swifts generally do not land on their own initiative, but if they really want to put them on the ground, they are not completely unable to fly, and the saying that landing means death is a bit exaggerated. But no matter what, the swift will definitely not land on its own initiative, and it is too difficult to take off from the ground!
In fact, "never landing" does not mean flying forever, although swifts are very capable of flying, can eat, sleep, and even mate in the air, but they can't always hatch eggs in the air, right? Therefore, swifts are also used by swifts to build nests and incubate eggs and raise offspring. From May to July, the swifts are breeding season, flying in flocks in search of their mates, and once the male and female swifts are in sight, they are ready to raise their offspring.
It is incredible that swifts intercept nesting materials in the air, and there is no material in the air that can be used to build nests, so swifts' nests are relatively simple and rough. The Swift Companion will perform after settling into the house, and this process is done in the air.
The male and female swifts balance in the air with their superb flying skills, and the males aim their cloacas at the female's cloaca to mate in a matter of seconds. Swift spawning is also different from other bird's nest family birds, as it lays two milky white eggs at a time, with slightly pointed ends. In about a month, the female swift will be able to hatch, and the chicks will be out of the nest in another month.
After the nestling comes out of the nest, it will fly to the south with the mother swift for the winter, and from the time of departure, the chicks will not stop, and will fly with the swift flock, eating and sleeping in the sky until they reach the warm south. Therefore, swifts do not fly forever, they just easily fall to the ground, and swifts during the breeding period still need to build nests and hatch eggs, and it is still an exaggeration to say that they have been flying in the air.
-
Yes. It will always fly in the air, but it may land when it is resting, and it will not land at all.
-
It doesn't fly in the air all the time, because it also rests, so we have to look at it sensibly.
-
In addition to flying in the air, this animal also lands on the roof of houses, on tree branches or power lines, and rests.
-
Because it is too difficult for a swift to take off from the ground, its physiological structure allows it to fly in the sky all the time, including finding food.
-
Because swifts are very persistent animals, as long as they are alive for a day, they will always soar in the sky, wanting to conquer this sky; Normally, it will fly in the sky.
-
Because swifts often either wander at low altitudes or fly high altitudes, rarely landing, and when resting, they are also on tree branches. And it's not just about flying in the sky.
-
Swifts don't always fly in the sky, swifts also have their own nests, it's just that they fly for a longer time.

The term "swift" generally refers to the species of the swift family. Although crested swifts are good at flying, they often land on branches or power lines, etc., and only take off to hunt after flying insects. Hummingbirds are good at hovering, but they still find a place to sleep at night.
Only most species of the swift family barely land, their feet have degraded to the point where they can only cling to the façade, unable to walk or jump, so they will never land on the ground on their own initiative, because once they have landed on flat ground, they cannot take off again.
European studies of the common swift (Apus apus) are more detailed, and the observation shows that the chicks do not return to the nest after they can fly, and do not begin to participate in breeding until they are three or four years old, and they have been flying non-stop during this time, note that from the summer of their birth until the breeding season at least two years later, a swift may have to fly continuously for 500,000 kilometers. Swifts fly high into the air when they sleep at night, because they don't have to worry about running into obstacles at high places.
During the breeding season, they will return to their breeding grounds, mainly old buildings, and then courtship in the air, mate in the air, collect nest material in the air, and then return to the nest site to glue saliva into a nest (swiftlets and the like use saliva directly), and then the swifts will stay in the nest when laying eggs and hatching, which is probably the longest period of time they have stopped flying.
Swift chicks can go hungry, and when the weather is bad (mainly rainy and rainy), the adults will simply fly away from the breeding grounds and fly hundreds or thousands of kilometers away from the rainfall area to feed. At this point, the young birds enter a state of "suspended animation", where their metabolism is reduced to a minimum and they wait for their parents to return. Normally, young birds can leave the nest at 5 weeks, but in the case of these conditions, it can be extended to 2 months.
In short, this is a group of birds that want to fly in the sky for the rest of their lives, except for the time when they lay eggs and hatch, they do not touch ......the ground at other timesIt's a romantic way of life that pursues flying in a determined way.
-
This is because swifts need to land at a high altitude and fly to take off.
-
Because they take off mainly by gliding.
-
Swifts need to jump off from the benefits to help, and they can't take off on flat ground.
-
Because swifts have special wings, it is difficult to fly on their own in relatively low places.
-
Swifts have long wings, making it difficult to take off from flat ground, and they generally jump down from a high place to take off.
-
Because swifts need to support objects for takeoff.
-
Swifts need a certain amount of help to take off.
-
Swifts generally jump from a great place and take off.
-
Because swifts have short feet? Weak and weak enough to walk on the ground? The rain swift flies very fast, and can fly at speeds of up to 110 kilometers per hour whenever it skims over the water or flies low on the ground to hunt?
Although swifts have weak feet, their toes are very strong, and they can use their toes to hook their toes to rest on the cliff wall or build a nest? Feeding young birds?

It may be injured or sick, if it can't be artificially fed, it can only be released in the wild, and whether it can survive depends on whether it is fatal.
