The bird is, there- fore, a biped, and the operations of finding and taking the food, of cleansing the plumage, are performed al- most exclusively by the mouth, which consists of two lipless and toothless jaws sheathed with horn. The shape of the body is oval, the neck is long and flexible, the legs are set well back, and the toes are lengthened and spread out to form an adequate base of support. The bones are light, and some of them have cavities 72 STUDIES IN ENGLISH COMPOSITION. which are fi...lled with air when the bird breathes. The bones of the back are more or less united ; the sternum or breast bone is very large in order to make a place of attachment for the great muscles which move the wings. In front of the sternum is a bony brace which keeps the shoulders apart, called in chickens the wishbone. IJesides the ordinary clothing-feathers are larger ones called quills. Considering the wing of a bird as a mod- ified arm, the quills of the hand are called primaries ; of the forearm, secondaries ; of the humerus, tertiaries.
