oology \oh-OL-uh-jee\ noun 1. the branch of ornithology that studies birds' eggs. Quotes Brits, as Julian Rubinstein wrote in the magazine last year, are so crazy about oology—the study of eggs—that they are sometimes driven cross the law in their pursuits, hoping to escape the notice of special oological investigators. -- Alexandra Schwartz, Consider the Egg, The New Yorker, April 23, 2014 Origin Oology is a combination of the Latin combining form oo-, from the Greek term ōión meaning "egg," and the combining form -logy used in the names of sciences or bodies of knowledge.
