Deuteronomy 14:18
16 the little owl, the great owl, the white owl,
17 the desert owl, the osprey, the cormorant,
the stork, any kind of heron, the hoopoe, or the bat.
19 All flying insects are unclean for you; they may not be eaten.
20 But you may eat any clean bird.
This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
