Critters and birds formed AFTER Adam:

Genesis 2  (KJV)
19 And out of the ground the Lord God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof.

That's not what the verse says and if you really believe it does then you are not very intelligent. It says God did this just as He did with Adam, it doesn't refer to a specific time for either, the whole point to the verse is to show man's intelligence over that of the animals.

Critters and fowl formed BEFORE Adam and Eve:

Genesis 1  KJV
20 And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.
21 And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
22 And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.
23 And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.
24 And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so.
25 And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

More Bible confusion and apologetic confusion from Bible believers . . .

   

This is the correct order as given to us by God, the other verses give some extra detail but like I said it was to show man's intelligence over the animals and the dominion God would give man over the animals. It's beyond me how people can claim to be so smart yet miss something as simple as this, truly astounding it is.
