I don't know much about birds, but there are magpies here that like to explore my backyard often and I find them really beautiful and majestic. I guess they are my favourite right now.

They do look very cool

Mine is the black capped chickadee (Poecile atricapillus). I like them because they are very cute and fluffy.

Redwinged Blackbird

Move in groups. Kick ass coloration, inky black everywhere except a patch on the "shoulder" of their wings thats something like red/yellow.

Shoebill storks are awesome. I like how big they are and the awesome sounds they make. I enjoy their mysterious and sometimes ominous appearance and behaviors. Sometimes they seem really friendly and silly too!

The Eurasian nuthatch is my favorite because it often walks down tree trunks, upside down while facing the ground.

And I have to give an honorable mention to Bulwer's pheasants for obvious reasons.

POV: You are about to be tackled and devoured by a nuthatch.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Nuthatches are so quirky, always hopping around on walls and hanging upside down.

Pigeons are genetically superior to all other birds

Have you seen their nests..

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yes, efficient engineering marvels that can be constructed literally anywhere. They also have a built-in shit guidance system so it lands directly on your head or food.

I really love birds, so it's hard to choose one. So I'll choose two.

Here we have the Anu-Preto, it looks like an angry chibi crow.

And also the Biguá, which looks like something out of a dinosaur movie. But don't be fooled, he's tiny.

But all birds are beautiful, specially weirdo tropical birds.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Both those birds look super weird (positive) and both look uber cool

My pet cockatiel made me appreciate birds more in general so I’ll give it to cockatiels

Dodo bird!

Runner up: Raven.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Both great birds!!!

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I like the wood pigeon. It has a nice voice that sounds really chill. I associate it with waking up on camping trips. I also like the way they look. Unlike feral pigeons, they are more shy and don't go near humans that much, but one time while I was collecting some trash in the park one followed me and came 15 cm close to me.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

It definitely tried to shit on your head.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

The classic red Cardinal, male or female. They sometimes hang out in my yard and their song is so great.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

cardinals are red and therefore the communists of birds

I just like birds in general. I’ve interacted with a lot of unique birds over my life, and they’re all smart as fuck. Even my dumbass rooster.

I love the Q-q'qs, one of the few animals intelligent enough to talk and despite being purely wild animals you can make friends with one.
