Any bird of the order Passeriformes, sometimes known as perching birds

A passerine () is any bird of the order Passeriformes (; from Latin passer 'sparrow' and formis '-shaped') which includes more than half of all bird species. Sometimes known as perching birds, passerines generally have an anisodactyl arrangement of their toes (three pointing forward and one back), which facilitates perching.
