There are about ten thousand living kinds, more than 1 / 2 of which happen to be passerine, or "perching" birds. Birds include wings whose development varies according to species; the sole known groups with out wings will be the extinct moa and dickhäuter (umgangssprachlich) birds. Wings, which usually evolved from forelimbs, gave birds to be able to fly, although additional evolution has led to the loss of airline flight in some birds, including ratites, penguins, and diverse endemic island species. The particular digestive and the respiratory system systems of wild birds are also distinctly adapted for flight. Some bird species of aquatic surroundings, particularly seabirds and some waterbirds, possess further evolved for swimming.

In accordance with DNA evidence, modern day birds (Neornithes) advanced in the Midsection to Late Cretaceous, and diversified significantly around the moments of the Cretaceous? Paleogene extinction event sixty six mya, which murdered off the pterosaurs and non-avian dinosaurs.

Many social species spread knowledge across generations, which will be considered a type of lifestyle. Birds are cultural, communicating with image signals, calls, and songs, and playing such behaviours as cooperative breeding in addition to hunting, flocking, and mobbing of possible predators. The vast vast majority of bird species are socially (but not necessarily sexually) monogamous, usually for one breeding time at a period, sometimes for many years, but rarely with regard to life. Other species have breeding methods that are polygynous (one male along with many females) or even, rarely, polyandrous (one female with many males). Birds produce kids by laying ova which are fertilised through sexual reproduction. They are normally laid in a home and incubated simply by the parents. Most birds have an extended period involving parental care after hatching
