The archaeopteryx was clearly bipedal as it had 2 legs and 2 wings that clearly could not support body weight like the legs. However the wings had claws and could very likely be used to climb trees using all 4 limbs.

What does being bipedal mean?

Being bipedal means that an organism primarily uses two legs for locomotion. This form of movement allows for walking, running, and other forms of travel on two feet, distinguishing bipedal species from quadrupedal ones that use four limbs. Bipedalism is associated with various evolutionary advantages, such as freeing the hands for tool use and improving visibility in certain environments. Humans and many bird species are prime examples of bipedal organisms.
