"When you see a bird do that underwater, I think "flying underwater" is a more interesting way of expressing it, but perhaps I am so ignorant I don't know the difference between the use of the words "fly" and "swim" and so all of this science-stuff is simply going to be forever beyond me."

Good assumption. Flying is flying, and swimming is swimming. No amount of wishing will make a penguin capable of flight.

Thanks for clearing that up for me. I always get those two confused. Fly - sky. Got it!

No amount of wishing can make a bird fly, but apparently it can make a lizard fly!
