Final answer:

The best evidence that two groups of birds belong to different species is when members of the two groups do not mate with each other.


Explanation:

The best evidence that two groups of birds belong to different species would be if members of the two groups do not mate with each other. When different species do not interbreed, it indicates that they have evolved in isolation and have reproductive barriers that prevent gene flow. This lack of interbreeding maintains the genetic distinction between the species.
