Bird Order Quiz

Passeriformes is the correct answer as it is the order commonly known as perching birds or songbirds, which includes species like sparrows, magpies, starlings, robins, canaries, crows, and ravens. Columbiformes refers to pigeons and doves, Psittaciformes refers to parrots, and Strigiformes refers to owls, which are not considered songbirds.

Psittaciformes is the correct answer as it includes all the species mentioned in the question such as parrots, parakeets, and cockatoos. Columbiformes are pigeons and doves, Falconiformes are birds of prey like hawks and eagles, and Strigiformes are owls which do not belong to the order including colorful tropic birds with strong bills.

Falconiformes is the correct answer because it includes birds of prey with narrower wings specialized for high-speed flight and hunting small prey. Accipitriformes consists of birds of prey with broad wings for soaring, Strigiformes includes owls, and Coraciiformes includes kingfishers and bee-eaters, not narrow-winged birds of prey.

Accipitriformes is the correct answer because it includes hawks, eagles, and vultures. Falconiformes includes falcons and caracaras, not broad-winged birds of prey like hawks. Strigiformes includes owls, which are not broad-winged birds of prey. Charadriiformes includes shorebirds and not birds of prey.

Strigiformes is the correct answer as it is the order that includes Nocturnal/crepuscular birds of prey like screech owl, barn owl, and great horned owl. The other options are orders that include different types of birds such as eagles and hawks (Accipitriformes), falcons (Falconiformes), and doves and pigeons (Columbiformes), which are not nocturnal/crepuscular birds of prey.

Coraciiformes is the correct order that includes large-headed fishing birds such as the belted kingfisher. Passeriformes includes perching birds, Piciformes includes woodpeckers and toucans, and Ciconiiformes includes storks and herons.

Woodpeckers belong to the order Piciformes, which also includes toucans and barbets. Passeriformes includes perching birds, Accipitriformes includes birds of prey like eagles and hawks, and Strigiformes includes owls.

Charadriiformes is the correct order that includes shore birds like sandpipers, gulls, avocets, plovers, dunlins, and killdeers. Ciconiiformes, Falconiformes, and Strigiformes are not orders that primarily consist of shore birds.

Pelicans belong to the order Pelecaniformes, which includes various seabirds known for their long beaks and large throat pouches for catching and storing fish. The incorrect answers are other bird orders that do not include Pelicans.

The correct answer is Apodiformes because the 'apo' part of the word means without feet, which is an accurate description of hummingbirds since they have tiny legs and use them mostly for perching rather than walking.

Long-legged wading birds like flamingos and storks belong to the order Ciconiiformes. Passeriformes consist of perching birds, Falconiformes include birds of prey like eagles and hawks, and Galliformes include game birds such as turkeys and pheasants.

Gamebirds such as pheasants, quails, jungle fowl, chickens, turkeys, peacocks, and peahens belong to the order Galliformes. The other incorrect options do not encompass gamebirds.

The correct order that includes waterfowl such as swans, geese, and ducks is Anseriformes. The other options given are not related to waterfowl.
