Birds are arrogant

This morning I saw a bird walking on the sidewalk and then it flew and landed three feet away. Did it really need to fly? Why didn't it just keep walking? Clearly it can walk but it's just like showing off, like, 'look what I can do'. It was extremely condescending and unnecessary. It's like if I start doing yo-yo tricks whenever I come across a bird just to show it something it can't do. Sometimes I wish birds would walk more.
