Doing google, I came to know that they are called bionic bird. But, bionic bird may not necessarily fly. They can be used as a spying robots sitting on a wall.

The name of this device dates back to 1908. It come from French ornithoptère meaning a machine designed to fly be mechanical flapping of wings.
Here, Greek ornitho- meaning brid + Greek -pteron meaning "wing".
So, we have the word ornithopter.
A machine designed to achieve flight by means of flapping wings.
"In collaboration with SRI International in Menlo Park, California, they are developing ornithopters - aircraft that get all of their thrust and most of their lift from flapping wings."
