The largest bird can’t fly
The ostrich, at more than eight feet tall and 350 pounds, is the tallest and heaviest bird, but it does not fly. It can run at about 35 miles per hour. The wild turkey runs 30 miles per hour, the California roadrunner runs 26 miles per hour, and the common pheasant has been clocked at 21 miles per hour.
