List of 7-letter Birds that contain E

    1

    Bittern

    Botaurus stellaris

    A secretive, booming heron of reed beds — the male's low, foghorn-like boom carries for kilometres across marshes on still spring nights and is one of the most extraordinary sounds in British wildlife; the bittern's streaked brown plumage makes it almost impossible to spot even when standing upright among reeds.

    2

    Blue Jay

    Cyanocitta cristata

    A bold, intelligent corvid with vivid blue, white, and black plumage native to eastern North America, a notorious mimic that imitates hawks to scare other birds.

    3

    Chicken

    Gallus gallus domesticus

    The most numerous bird on Earth — over 30 billion at any given time — domesticated from the Southeast Asian red junglefowl about 8,000 years ago and now central to every poultry-eating cuisine on Earth.

    4

    Kestrel

    Falco tinnunculus

    A small falcon famous for hovering motionless into the wind above roadsides, moorland, and open fields while scanning the ground below for mice, voles, and large insects — one of the most recognizable birds of European and Asian countryside.

    5

    Peacock

    Pavo cristatus

    A large pheasant native to South Asia whose male sports a vivid iridescent train and elaborate fan display, the textbook example of sexual selection in evolution.

    6

    Pelican

    Pelecanus occidentalis (brown); Pelecanus erythrorhynchos (American white)

    A large coastal water bird with a distinctive throat pouch — used as a fishing net during plunge-dives and as a holding bag while feeding chicks, common at coastal fishing piers worldwide.

    7

    Penguin

    Aptenodytes forsteri

    The largest living penguin species and the only animal to breed during the Antarctic winter, enduring the planet's harshest conditions.

    8

    Red Kite

    Milvus milvus

    Britain's most spectacular conservation success story — a large, elegant, fork-tailed raptor that was reduced to a tiny remnant population of a few dozen birds in Wales by the 1930s and has since been reintroduced across England and Scotland, now numbering thousands; the russet-red body, pale head, and deeply forked tail make it unmistakable in flight.

    9

    Seagull

    Laridae (family)

    A common term for various gull species — adaptable scavenger-omnivores found at coastlines, parking lots, garbage dumps, and inland lakes worldwide, with the herring gull and ring-billed gull being among the most familiar.

    10

    Vulture

    Cathartes aura

    A widespread New World scavenger with a featherless red head and an extraordinary sense of smell — the only vulture that locates food primarily by odor.

    11

    Warbler

    Parulidae (New World)

    Small, often brightly colored songbirds — the "wood warblers" of the New World contain over 110 dazzling species, while "Old World warblers" comprise different families with different characteristics, both crucial for migration and forest insect control.
