There are quack-quacks and peep-peeps.
Studied Ichthyology in the early 2000’s and will never forget how much of my A&P coursework was on birds. And how the lab TAs were not at all impressed when I just called them all air fish.

There’s also no such thing as a tree. Tree is a survival strategy, not a biological classification.

This meme is incorrect. A botatist would have names like:

“Fucker who at the flower buds on my Forsythia europea”
“Little shithead who dug up my Lathyrus odoratus”
