In my autistic attempt to explain how dragons work in my setting, naturally I apply the same sort of magic biology to all other creatures.

Wings serve as a conduit for the magic/psychic energy which allows them to fly and they can learn how to harness this energy to do different kinds of magic suitable for it.

Major stretch but I don't suppose there are any sci-fi looking bird people? Otherwise regular fantasy looking bird people will suffice.
