Birds bowel and urine comes from the same place, in the same pile. Basically, it's bird shit.

When they poop they excrete both kinds at the same time but it isn't liquidy like urine. If you look closely (and I know you don't want too:-) you will see that there are two different colors of excrement, white or almost pale greenish and a darker bit in the center. That whitish part is like uric acid. It's their way of getting rid of the nitrogen-containing wastes formed during the breakdown of proteins in their blood. Urea needs lots of water to be safely expelled from the body. Uric acid is pretty safe in its drier form as it doesn't dissolve in water very easily. SO not all animals pee but all need to get rid of their toxic waste somehow. Birds just do it in a way to conserve their water in the bodies.
