My first reflex is to ask whether noodles prepared for human consumption might be too much sodium for a small body like that. I don't know anything about birds though, other than that they're not real.

Yeah, just the ocean air on a windy day caused my drone to rust

Prob not good for them to do very often at the very least. I recently had to do a little rehab for an injured wild dove my wife brought home. We couldn't find a vet or wildlife rehab that took them, so I had to expand my knowledge about medicine into the avian realm.

Turns out birds have pretty delicate constitutions, just finding an antimicrobial that wouldn't poison them was hard enough. Pretty much everything I read was very specific about what was safe and not safe for them to eat, though I don't know if the same applies to domesticated birds.

If birds have such delicate constitutions, how do wild birds like pigeons and crows not accidentally poison themselves when eating? Seems like they'll eat anything and everything.

I don't think it would be correct to label them scavenging human food as poisoning themselves in most cases, more that it's just bad for their overall health. A lot of our food has a bunch of calories and fats without any nutritional value for birds. I know with pigeons a diet high in breads and processed carbohydrates can lead to wig deformities.
