A bird that flies for about 10 years without landing on land (Abel)

Experts have long believed that some birds keep flying in the air for several months and do not land.

 But now it has been proven that this ability is found in a bird like Abel.

 This mediocre bird found in Europe and Asia flies for most of the year, with some data suggesting that it flies for up to 10 months a year.

 It eats small insects that fly in the air during flight. In addition, male and female birds mate during flight. Even these birds, instead of shaking in special gases within the atmosphere, give up the hard work and glide in the air and call it 'thermal'.

In the 1950's some experts suggested the idea of ​​such a bird, but after researching in 2016, details of the constant flying swift came out. Earlier we learned that frigates and alpine swifts can fly for up to a month.

The research was carried out by the University of Leuven in Switzerland, in which 19 types of Swift were tracked. It turns out that the Commons Swift Abbey spends 99% of the time on a 10-month flight, but believes that they do not breed in the meantime.

Anders Hendenstrom, a scientist with the study, said that the bird also takes sleep during flight, but more details have not been released. It may be thought that it fulfills sleep while flying like frigate and alpine swift. More research is needed on this.
