Ornithology: Study of Birds, Significance and Migration
Collegedunia Team
Content Curator
Ornithology is the study of birds which includes their physical characteristics, behaviour and their
conservation procedure along with their habitats. This can be done by conducting various surveys, tracking
and recording their activities and environment. Birds are a group of warm-blooded endothermic vertebrates
with feathers, beaked jaws, a four-chambered heart, and a well-designed body structure with wings to fly.
Crocodiles, alligators, and dinosaurs are their closest living relatives. The word Ornithology is derived
from the ancient Greek words "Ornis" (birds) and "logos" (theory), and refers to the theory of birds.
