Largest Flying Bird Ever Descoverd...

"Argentavis magnificens is the largest flying bird ever discovered... but it died out about 6 million years ago." -animaladay.blogspot.com


"Despite  its huge wings and flight feathers, it is speculated that magnificens was unable to truly fly. It weighed around 150lbs, making it difficult to take off. Instead, the birds most likely had  to run downhill into a headwind, which would then lift them up and allow them to glide." -animaladay.blogspot.com


I believe the picture you see above is an actual life-sized drawing!
