In this article, we're going to look at a list of Japanese words related to birds. I hope you enjoy this extensive list of birds in Japanese. As well as birds in Japanese, at the end of the article we'll have a list of onomatopoeia and related words.

It is worth remembering that although the names of the birds in Japanese are written with kanji (ideograms). It turns out that it is more common to write them with katakana or sometimes hiragana. This happens a lot with names of animals and birds.
