What does wingspan mean?
The distance from the tip of one wing to the tip of the other wing of a bird or aircraft. The extent of a bird's wingspan is an important factor in determining its size and flying ability.
Example
"The large bird of prey had a wingspan of over 2 meters, making it a formidable hunter."
