Then you want something closer to:

Code:
for i in $birdname
do
        if [[ "$REPLY" = "$i" ]]
        then
                Found = Found + 1
        else
                NotFound = NotFound +1
        fi
done

if $Found > 0
   then 
      echo "Yes, that is a bird."
   else
      echo "No, not a bird."
fi
