Their long wing feathers help them get the lift necessary for flight. Birds fly pretty fast. They can fly even faster in case of emergency. Ducks have been known to fly more than 60 miles per hour when being chased. Not all birds can fly, however. The largest of all living birds the ostrich, cannot fly. There are more than 9,000 species of birds. They can be found in just about every type of environment. Among the best known are the birds of prey, such as hawks, eagles and owls. More than half of birds are perching birds. They have an arrangement of toes and leg tendons that let them balance like an acrobat on small twigs or telephone wires. Songbirds make up most of this group, which includes sparrows, finches, crows, blackbirds, thrushes, and swallows. Aquatic birds get most of their food from water. Some of these birds, such as the albatross, spend much of their time over the open ocean. Others, like penguins, live on the land.
