Apart from flying fish, which other type of fish has wings?

 

Ones that were in a pond or small lake where Red Bull was tipped in

 

Well wide of the mark - these fish don't live in water.

 

Was a joke FFS

 

I guessed that, but it was time for a clue...

 

Sea Robin?

 

No - they don't have wings they have wing-like pectoral fins - and they live in water. The creatures I'm thinking of have 'real' wings and don't live in water - but are classified as fish. Only in America though...

 

Bees. In California. So that they are no longer under certain environmental protections. WTAF is the world coming to, eh?

 

Yup. The Californian government reclassified bees as fish last month - actually because insects aren't covered in the state's endangered species laws so couldn't be declared as endangered. The laws do cover fish so to solve the problem, bees were simply reclassified as fish.

Over to you.

 

Who am I?
Born 1835 across the pond and then some, I didn't graduate from college but taught science and devised experimental equipment there all the same. In the course of my career I notched up 70 patents...

 

Things electronic or electrical are my forté.

 

Elisha Gray.

 

That's the one. Was working my way to synthesisers, and alleged patent shenanigans re AG Bell and the telephone... over to you.

 

Thanks Fez.
