native birds
Local feathered wildlife
Native birds are bird species that occur naturally in a particular region, having evolved or established populations there without human introduction.
The term distinguishes indigenous species from those brought by humans, whether intentionally or accidentally.
Conservation efforts often prioritize native birds over introduced species: The island's native birds face threats from invasive predators.
