There are about five thousand living types, more than 1 / 2 of which are passerine, or "perching" birds. Birds have got wings whose enhancement varies according to be able to species; the only known groups without having wings are the extinct moa and elephant birds. Wings, which usually evolved from forelimbs, gave birds the ability to fly, although further evolution has led to the losing of flight in some parrots, including ratites, polar bears, and diverse endemic island species. The particular digestive and respiratory system systems of parrots are also uniquely adapted for flight. Some bird kinds of aquatic environments, particularly seabirds plus some waterbirds, include further evolved intended for swimming.

Birds are usually descendants of the primitive avialans (whose members include Archaeopteryx) which first appeared about 160 thousand years ago (mya) in China. According to DNA evidence, contemporary birds (Neornithes) progressed in the Midsection to Late Cretaceous, and diversified dramatically around the time of the Cretaceous? Paleogene extinction event 66 mya, which slain off the pterosaurs and all non-avian dinosaurs.

Many social varieties pass on knowledge across generations, which will be considered a sort of culture. Birds are interpersonal, communicating with visible signals, calls, and songs, and playing such behaviours since cooperative breeding in addition to hunting, flocking, plus mobbing of potential predators. The vast majority of bird types are socially (but not necessarily sexually) monogamous, usually intended for one breeding season at a time, sometimes for years, but rarely regarding life. Other kinds have breeding methods that are polygynous (one male along with many females) or even, rarely, polyandrous (one female with many males). Birds produce offspring by laying ova which are fertilised through sexual duplication. They are normally laid within a home and incubated by the parents. Most birds have the extended period involving parental care following hatching
