I can float, but I cannot sting. You might see me in a flower garden.

Every living being needs it, yet it is often said to be for the dead Every living being experiences it, yet none are conscious for it Many living beings avoid it despite desiring it

I can measure time. I'm present in arid places, as well as in the most humid ones. Who am i?

I share my name with a bird, but I am not up high. People often avoid with me.

I sleep in the day, My skin looks like leather, I hit balls far away, My wings don't have feathers.
