'''Shearwigs''' ({{j|トビンコ|Tobinko|Tiny Flier}}) are [[Enemy|enemies]] in the [[Pikmin series|''Pikmin'' games]]. The females of this species are never seen, as, according to [[Olimar's notes]], they spend nearly their entire life underground, somewhat similar to cicadas. They also do not possess the males' wings. The males have a dark green shell, sporting simple wings and large, sickle-shaped mandibles. They are slightly more aggressive than [[Male Sheargrub]]s, and take leave off the ground to hover up high after having lost at least half of their [[health]] to allow it to steadily return. While up in the air, these creatures are still within the reach of a [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] [[throw]], of which just one accurate button-press is enough to kill one.

Like other [[Mandiblard family|mandiblards]], Shearwigs have an affinity for chewing apart [[Bridge|stick bridges]], and they lose health while in water, in the first two games. Because when they are being attacked they fly up, they will stop losing health as soon as they stop being submerged. On the ground, if they are hit in the back, they will die instantly, just like a [[Dwarf Bulborb]].

*On [[The Forest Navel]], one can lure Shearwigs into the pathway leading to the [[Libra]], or even to the part's island itself, and get it to fall into the [[abyss]]. This can be achieved by making it begin flight while near the edge; at times, the creature will end its flight stage above the pit, and plummet right down. This kills the Shearwig.

*The only Shearwigs in ''Pikmin 3''{{'s}} story mode are located in the Formidable Oak. However, they might not be actual Shearwigs because every enemy in the Formidable Oak turns into plasm when defeated, implying that they were created by the Plasm Wraith. This can also be applied to the [[Watery Blowhog]]'s appearance in ''Pikmin 3''{{'s}} story mode.
