Landfowl

Land birds are one of the six ecological groups of birds. Land birds refer to birds of the order Galliformes and Doves in the order Birds. There are 52 species of birds of these two orders recorded in Yunnan. These birds primarily live on land and are therefore called land birds. Grouse, pheasants, peacocks, etc. all fall into this category. Most of the terrestrial birds are resident birds, and a small number are migratory birds.
