A bird can flap its wings without moving by using its muscles to create a motion similar to flapping, but without actually lifting off the ground or moving forward. This can be done as a form of exercise or to maintain balance while perched.
Birds flap their wings in place to maintain balance, regulate body temperature, and strengthen their flight muscles.
Yes, they move them constantly up and down at a supremely fast rate to stay in flight.
Most hummingbirds flap their wings about 50 or so times a second. Moravia They have special wing that bend so that they can flap their wings faster
No, birds cannot stay completely still in the air while flying. They need to constantly flap their wings to maintain lift and stay airborne.

It was such a windy day and the flag flapped so furiously that we decided to take it down.
A convection current is a mass of warm air moving upwards because it is less dense than the air around it. These currents are usually called "Thermals" and care capped at their top by a cumulus cloud. If a bird can find the rising column of air that is a thermal and circle round in it, the bird is carried aloft with the air, without the need to flap its wings.
Cardinals, like most birds, flap their wings to get off the ground.
It depends on how far it goes and the size of the bird.
Well I can tell you that the average Humming Bird Can flap its wings 50-53 flaps a second so if you times that many flaps to the hour you'll get your answer.
