Dodos are a flightless bird that is related to species common today like pigeons and doves. It had evolved from flying ancestors and lost the ability to fly. Aside from that it was the same as the majority of modern birds. Flightlessness is not unknown in modern birds (penguin, emus, rheas, ostriches) so this is not a unique trait.
