Why the shadow of flying bird is not seen on the ground even though it is opaque?

If you see a bird but do not see a shadow on the ground, it is probably because of the angle the light is coming from. If you drew an imaginary line form the source of light, (probably the sun) through the bird, you would find the shadow of the bird where the line touched the ground. If there is no light, the bird cannot make a shadow.

The shadow of a flying bird is not seen on the ground because the bird is not touching the ground to cast a shadow. Shadows are formed when an object is blocking light from a source, but since the bird is not grounded, its shadow is not projected onto the surface below. Additionally, the bird's fast movement may also affect the visibility and clarity of a shadow.

Why does the satellite suddenly stop being visible?
A satellite can stop being visible due to factors such as entering the Earth's shadow, changing its orbit, or switching off its reflective surfaces making it harder to see from the ground. Additionally, atmospheric conditions, like clouds or light pollution, can also obstruct visibility of satellites.

Why does the earth cast a strait shadow on the moon even though the earth is round?
The Earth's shadow on the Moon during a lunar eclipse is not perfectly straight because the Earth is a sphere. The shadow is curved because of the Earth's curved shape. However, from the Moon's perspective, the shadow may appear as a straight line due to the Moon's distance from the Earth and the relative sizes of the two bodies.
Are hot air balloons the first flying machines to be invented?

Why a flying aeroplane does not cast it shadow on ground?
Aeroplanes do cast shadows, but when they are in flight we don't see those shadows on the ground. This is because the aeroplane is several miles above the surface of the earth, and the direct light from the sun can reach the ground from different angles around the plane.
