This document summarizes a science project about birds conducted by Avni Chaturvedi. It discusses the key parts and features of birds, including feathers, beaks, feet and claws. It describes the different types of feathers, beaks, feet and claws and how they help different kinds of birds. Reflection sheets provide information about specific bird species like sparrows, crows, and woodpeckers. The document also discusses endangered and extinct birds and expresses the view that if humans work together, we can help protect birds and the environment.

2. Birds and their Features
Birds are beautiful animals that can fly. Their body is divided into three parts: – head, Trunk, and tail.
They have two pairs of limbs – the legs and the wings. Birds have legs, but no hands. Their wings are
covered with feathers. Many birds can fly with the help of their wings. The Mouth of a bird is called a
beak. But they don’t have teeth. But birds itself distinguish with each other.
The following are the features that distinguish birds from other animals and themselves too.
• Feathers
• Beak
• Feet and Claws

3. Different kinds of feathers
There are three kinds of feathers: –
• Flight feathers – Flight feathers help birds to fly. They are found on the wings and the tail.
• Body feathers – Body feathers are colored feathers, which cover the body of the bird.
• Down feathers – Down feathers are soft and fluffy feathers found close to the body of a
bird. They help birds to keep their bodies warm.

BIRD TYPE OF FEET AND CLAWS HOW IT HELPS
1. SPARROW
Perching type. Long and slender
claws .
It has three toes in the front and
one at the back to hold on the
branches tightly.
2. CROW
Perching type It has three toes in the front and
one at the back to hold on the
branches tightly.
3. WOODPECKER
Climbing feet. Sharp and Curved
claws.
It has two toes in front and two
at the back. It has long curved
claws. This shape helps them
climb hold on the trees.
4. PENGUIN
Feet are Webbed, with visible
claws.
They use strong claws on their
feet to help grip the surface as
they shuffle along.
5. OSTRICH
Cursorial or running feet with
two sharp claws.
Their massive leg enable them
to deliver a powerful kick which
could seriously injure or even
kick a attacker.

8. If We were a Bird
If I were a bird, there would not be any kind of tension, evil, corruption etc. in my
world. I played with the winds free from pollution in the open sky and kept flying
away in the sky with singing the song .When I was flying in the sky, I would be very
happy to see the mountains, waterfalls, forests, humans, etc. and with that, I would
feel myself the best. But all this is only my own imagination. And we will not be able
to get out of the evil of this world just by imagining. We will all have to work
together to eradicate all the evils of this world and we have to keep our mother earth
as clean and beautiful as the sky so that we too can spend our lives happily like bird.

10. My favorite Bird
 Parrot is my favorite bird. It is a very beautiful bird. Its body is covered with
green feathers. Its wings are green which look very pretty when it flies.
 The parrot eats small fruits such as berries, grapes, etc. Parrots also eat rice,
mangoes and even chilli. The parrot has a thick red beak which is curved. There
is a black circle around its neck. Parrots are very good friends with people and
can mimic human speech. Thus it can be said that the parrots are very intelligent
and beautiful birds.
 Parrots are majestic and intelligent birds. They are very unique creatures and
must be protected from human cruelties.
