Birds have many adaptations for flight including feathers that are light and reduce drag, hollow bones to decrease weight, strong flight muscles, and other anatomical features like fused vertebrae and sternums that provide rigidity. Their circulatory, respiratory, and digestive systems are also highly specialized to support the high energy demands of flight, with large hearts, lungs with air sacs, and high calorie diets. These extensive morphological and anatomical adaptations allow birds to achieve powered flight and maneuverability in the air.
