Shearwig
Himeagea volaris
Shearwigs are enemies in both Pikmin games. They are male resembling orange winged, green Sheargrubs. They are slightly more aggresive than the Male Sheargrub, and when you take their health to the yellow zone, they take off and fly. You then need to throw Pikmin to kill them, and they also they regain health while flying. The Shearwig is never near a bridge to deconstruct it, so don't bother thinking this does the same as its cousins.
Shearwigs are not seen very often, a good place on land to find them is near the landing site of the Perplexing Pool.
Olimar's Notes
Unusual for their genus, flying mandiblards have retained their wings. However, only the adult males of this species can fly. Females of this species spend most of their life span underground. They do emerge for a period after maturation to spawn, but they never metamorphose.
Louie's Notes
Grate this beast into a zest and whisk with sugar, cream, and chopped dark chocolate for a lusciously indulgent mousse that's a true culinary coup de grace!
How to Kill
Pikmin
Swarm it until it flies up. Throw Pikmin on it, and it should die. If not, simply attack it again.
Captains
Impossible. They fly up before you can kill them.
