'''Fluzzard''' is a shy bird character that appears in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. His name is a portmanteau of "fly" and "buzzard." He appears in only two [[Galaxy|galaxies]]: the [[Wild Glide Galaxy]] and the [[Fleet Glide Galaxy]]. In both galaxies, [[Mario]] (or [[Luigi]]) must participate in the [[Fluzzard gliding]] [[minigame]], during which Fluzzard acts as a form of transportation for the player. As such, gliding with Fluzzard is the only way to progress through these two galaxies. | '''Fluzzard''' is a shy bird character that appears in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''.

Fluzzard is found at the beginning of the [[level]], and an orange [[Jibberjay]] tells Mario that Fluzzard is very shy and cannot fly very well, but he can glide. The Jibberjay then notices that Fluzzard seems to be OK with Mario and asks Mario if he will fly with Fluzzard. The Jibberjay then gives Mario a tutorial on how to control Fluzzard and tells him to try to fly through the big sun circle at the end of the race. After Mario completes the race, the Jibberjay gives him a [[Power Star]]. Fluzzard later reappears in the Fleet Glide Galaxy and flies again with Mario.
