List of 7-letter Birds that contain N

    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

    Bunting

    Emberiza citrinella

    A family of small, seed-eating songbirds found across Eurasia and the Americas — males are among the most brilliantly coloured birds of temperate regions, with deep blues, reds, and purples unmatched by larger species.

    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

    Lapwing

    Vanellus vanellus

    A pied farmland wader with a wispy black crest and spectacular aerial courtship display — once Europe's most abundant wader, now in rapid decline due to agricultural change, and the subject of major conservation concern.

    5

    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.

    6

    Penguin

    Aptenodytes forsteri

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

    7

    Sunbird

    Nectarinia famosa

    Africa and Asia's answer to the hummingbird — small, fast, and brilliantly iridescent nectar feeders that perch rather than hover, with long curved bills designed for specific flower shapes.

    8

    Waxwing

    Bombycilla garrulus

    A plump, crested bird with silky pinkish-brown plumage, a waxy red tips on its secondary feathers, and a voracious appetite for berries — irrupts into Western Europe and North America in winter when Scandinavian berry crops fail.
