The reason that many birds fly in a "v" formation or an "arrow" formation is for aerodynamics. The first bird "parts" the air and helps the ones behind it. It is like the front end of a car, how it "parts" the air for the rest of the car. If you had a car with a front that was a flat wall, it would move slower and therefore use more gas, be less efficient, and use more energy. It is the same idea with the birds. The front helps the birds in the back, and they rotate, and take turns in front, sort of like an Indian run because the birds get tired.
I hope that this explanation answers your question clearly.

How do you make your horse go faster on my horse club?
On my horse club, it was a problem for me too. I think that you use EITHER the arrow keys, or your mouse. Another user: You use the arrow keys to make your horse go faster. The up arrow to go faster, the down arrow to go slower. You steer using the mouse. (I wish you could use arrow keys for that too!!!) Hope this helped!
