Pterodactyl? Not so good with birds....

Yea, I didn't make it past the intro animation, sorry. I'm not that well versed in Ornithology either so I wouldn't be much help anyway.

I think it's a Pitirre

Birds really hate drones

I asked the bird for ID. It refused. Said it can't carry a wallet, it's too heavy and doesn't make for good aerodynamics.

Even a small swallow can be a hazard. They just don't give up and are way too agile and fast in all directions. Typical flying insect eaters (like the bird in the video) are not easily intimidated by full speed up or sports mode. If I spot birds preying on insects high in the air I usually try to stay far away from them.

Hogwash. I've seen European Swallows carry coconuts.

How can a 0.50 ounce bird carry a 3 lbs coconut? Maybe he grabs it by it by its husk [emoji23]

Or maybe it was an African Swallow...
