昨日、裏庭に赤い小鳥が飛んでいました。とてもきれいでした。
Yesterday, there was a small red bird in the back yard. It was very pretty.
As per the english text the person has seen the bird. but why in japanese sentence it is said that the bird was flying.
You are right! This would be a better translation: “Yesterday, a red little bird was flying in the backyard. It was very beautiful.” I’ll update it.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
