High Speed and Maneuverability Flight Wings Some birds of prey and most other fast-flying birds have developed High Speed Maneuverable wings. These wings are extremely flat, moderately long narrow, and triangular, and tend to be swept backwards, like the wings of a high-speed jet fighter. This type can be found in swifts, swallows, shorebirds, and waterfowl, and other small-to-medium-sized birds with rapid flight. Back to Bird Wing Shape ChoicesBack to Oregon Birds Back to Home Page |
