At the center of this system is the ovary, which contains thousands of potential eggs, or ova, that develop and mature over time. Birds have a light skeletal system and light but powerful musculature which, along with circulatory and respiratory systems capable of very high metabolic rates and oxygen supply, permit the bird to fly.
