Birds
Birds belong to a class of warm
blooded vertebrate animals with feather
covered bodies. Next to mammals, birds
are the most important group of land-
living vertebrates.
All birds have feathers, although in
some types, particularly those that can
not fly, the normal structure of the
feathers of the feathers may be much
modified and be downy, woolly, or
straw like. The forelimbs of birds are
modified into wings. The bony part of
the tall, except in the very earliest fossil
birds, is very short, and the visible tall is
composed of the feathers only. The teeth
are absent except in some fossil forms.
As in mammals the only other group of
warm-blooded animal-the circulation is
highly perfected so that there is no
mixing of arterial and venous blood, but
the arrangement of veins and arteries by
which this is accomplished, is different
in the two groups. Birds have keen
hearing, although they have no external
ears. The sense of sight also is very
keen, but the sense of smell is weak or
lacking, except in a few vultures and
other birds.
