They jump, glide for about a second, and flap their wings in a circular motion. when birds flap it doesn't make them fly it makes them go forward. the bird pushes the air backwards pushing them forwards

How much thrust can a bird create in flight?

Well, obviously, most flying birds are able to generate at least as much thrust as is their body weight. But most birds are unable to take off in vertical flight - so that modest thrust is about the limit for most birds. Indeed, few birds can manage vertical flight with a sustained ascent. In New Zealand, we have a native pigeon, Kereru, which loves a matai berry - about the size of an acorn. These they eat in sufficient quantity such that they cannot even maintain level flight!
