Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
The friction also acts on a bird flying in the air. The friction will only produce when the two surfaces are in contact with each other if there is no contact then there will be no frictional force. And for air and water, we use fluid friction or we can say it is a drag. Hence, air drag acts on a flying bird.
The correct statement would be that friction does act on a bird flying in the air.
