[QUOTE="Skaloop, post: 52429389, member: 148393"] Both of which are specific kinds of flying. Although you probably shouldn't be hanging your hopes on colloquial layterms for various animals anyway. A bull frog isn't a bull, a dragon fly isn't a dragon, a spider monkey isn't a spider, and a bald eagle isn't bald. Yep, common names are full of inaccurate adjectives and comparisons. Luckily, scientists have better ways of determining what an organism is or is not than "what they happen to be called by the general public." [/QUOTE]
