Birds or Aves are vertebrates that are characterized by feathers, beak, and wings. Their forelimbs are modified into wings that are covered with feathers along with the rest of their bodies. Their wings enable them to fly, which happens to be their primary mode of locomotion.
So, the correct answer is 'Aves'.
