Below are articles from the following dictionary:
Vine's Expository Dictionary of New Testament Words
1 Strong's Number: g3732 Greek: orneon

Bird (Fowl):

is probably connected with a word signifying "to perceive, to hear;" Rev 18:2; 19:17, 21.
See FOWL. Cp. ornis, a hen.

2 Strong's Number: g4071 Greek: peteinon

Bird (Fowl):

signifies "that which is able to fly, winged." It is connected with ptenon signifying "feathered, winged," which is used in 1Cr 15:39. Cp. petomai and petaomai, "to fly." In the Gospels the RV always translates it "birds," e.g., Mat 6:26; but "fowls" in Act 10:12; 11:6. The AV unsuitably has "fowls," in the Gospels, except Mat 8:20; 13:32; Luk 9:58.
