But birds did evolve from the dinosaurs, so wouldn't we consider them to be a new species that evolved from another species?

Birds evolving from dinosaurs would be an example of macro-evolution, something that scientists still haven't been able to replicate in the lab with any plants or animals.

Micro-evolution would be small changes within a species levels. Breeding dogs to suit, or Darwin's finches that adapted as the climate changed. Ultimately, the dog is still a dog, a finch is still a finch.
