Bird (noun)
Definition
We can define a bird as a warm-blooded and feathered vertebrate belonging to the class Aves. Birds typically have beaks, and wings, and lay hard-shelled eggs. They are characterized by their ability to fly (although some species are flightless) and are found in a wide range of habitats worldwide.
Etymology
The word bird can be traced back to the Old English word brid, which is related to the Old High German word brut and the Old Norse word fugl. These roots likely originated from imitative sounds that birds make.
