A guy ties wild birds together and uses them to fly to the moon.

The plot is pretty strange with an adventure on an island leading to a trip to the moon and then back again to China but

A short bit of what i guess is early sci-fi. I've read a number of things similar to this like Lucian's True History;, Empires of the Sun and Moon by Cyrano de Bergerac or Voyage to Cacklogallinia but all of those are satires or comedy and so avoid being classed as sci-fi.
