Flying Spades from Wario World.
Some Flying Shovels.

Flying Shovels[1], also referred to as Flying Spades[2], are enemies found in Pecan Sands, in Wario World. As their name suggests, they are essentially giant flying shovels.

These enemies are rather like Monstrous Magnets; they fly using tiny insect wings and Wario can get to higher places by throwing them headfirst into a soft section of dirt on a wall. They also make the same echoing metal sound upon being knocked down.
