How many times does a gnat flap its wings in a second?

 Blue Jay beats it's wings about 40 times per second. So it beats its wings about 2,400 times per minute and about 144,000 times per hour. An Eagle beats it's wings approximately 5 times per second. By multiplying that I know that an Eagle can beat it's wings about 300 times in a minute and18,000 times in an hour.
