Ornithopus pinnatus, the orange birdsfoot,[2] is a plant in the Fabaceae family.[3] It was first described as Scorpiurus pinnata in 1768 by Philip Miller in The Gardeners Dictionary.[3][4] In 1907, George Claridge Druce assigned it to the genus Ornithopus.[3][5]

It is native to Western Europe, the Mediterranean Region and Macaronesia but is found elsewhere as an introduced species.[6][1][2]
