Why do maple seeds spin like helicopter?
This is the tree's transport system. The leaves spin away from the mother tree in order to land and plant far enough away from the mother tree. This way, the seed can grow without being smothered out by roots or lack of water. If you pick a leaf too soon, you will see that it's slippery, pink leaf is too heavy and will not spin. Only when leaf dries out does it create the surface area plus light weight to spin. Thus, the wind shakes it from the tree, and ZOOM...the leave with the seed detaches and flies like a helicopter.
