winged creatures
Animals with flight
Winged creatures are animals with wings—birds, bats, insects, and in mythology, dragons and angels.
The phrase appears most often in nature writing, children's literature, and poetic contexts where a more general or lyrical term than "birds" is wanted: The garden attracted all manner of winged creatures.
