Can Haiyan fly and swim?

Haiyan can't swim. Haiyan mostly flies at sea during the day and returns to land after breeding or after dark to avoid the attack of raptors such as seagulls. Some people think that Haiyan can swim because it will fly close to the sea and occasionally be poured into the water to prey, but this is only a means of predation.

Can Haiyan swim?

Haiyan refers to a swallow flying on the sea, because when flying, it looks like it sticks to the water from a distance, giving people the illusion of swimming, but Haiyan can only fly but can't swim. Haiyan lived in the sea all her life and ate fish and shrimp.

Most petrels fly on the sea during the day, as long as they breed or return to land after dark to reduce the predation of raptors such as seagulls. Haiyan will be close to the sea when flying at sea, and her skill is very agile. Sometimes her feet touch the water, just like walking in the water.

Standing on the sea surface, we can also see some oceans rushing into the water to prey, and then rushing out of the water quickly, but this does not mean that Haiyan can swim, it is just a means of preying.

Haiyan seldom stays at sea to rest. It usually flies tirelessly at sea. If it is tired, it will go back to land to rest, because it is dangerous to stay at sea to rest, and it is likely to be attacked by other predators.
