Birds are Warm-Blooded
Birds are warm-blooded animals with internal skeletons. They all have wings and feathers. Not all birds can fly.
All Flying birds have
- A light, water proof covering of feathers all over their body. The feathers help birds to fly and keep body heat in, so they stays warm.
- Two wings covered with extra-strong flight feathers. The wings help to raise the bird into the air and the bird keeps itself flying by flapping them.
- A horny pointed beak the feeding. Different birds have differently shaped beaks.
- Lightweight, party hollow bones.
- Scaly legs and feet with three or four toes and sharp claws.
