👉 In the context of evolutionary biology, an "ornithological" term is used to refer to organisms that are known for their ability to fly. This includes birds (such as eagles and falcons), bats (such as owls), and other flightless animals such as insects, butterflies, and some reptiles. Ornithologists study the behavior, biology, and ecology of these species in order to better understand how they contribute to the ecological balance of their habitats.
