bird wings
Avian propulsion structures
Bird wings are the paired forelimbs of birds, adapted for flight.
The structure—feathers attached to a framework of bone—allows most species to become airborne, though some birds have wings too small or weak for flight.
Wing extends metaphorically to aircraft parts, building sections, and political factions.
The bird spread its wings and took off.
