Birds can be divided into following categories. Some are known as singing birds, some are known as game birds, some of them are considered to be good fortune birds and so on. All these categories are created by man of different region of the world.

Most of the birds can fly except a few species. They have light bone and feather in their wings that help them to fly. Most of them are diurnal and only a few species such as owls and night-jars are nocturnal.

Birds mainly feed fruit, plants, seeds etc. As they have no teeth their digestive system allows them to eat only simple foods.
