Native to North America, the Blue Jay is found throughout most of the eastern and central United States, with some populations migrating... read more

I see it all the time, and even though it sounds like a mean fifth-grade girl, it's beautiful.

I watch documentaries about those. They're ever so interesting.

Blue Jays are so pretty! They have almost any shade of blue!

I'm not sure about parrots, but my favorite type of parrot is the Double Yellow Headed Amazon Parrot, also known as the Mexican Headed or Yellow Headed Amazon.
I study Amazon Parrots.

They're cute because they imitate human speech.

Some parrots can even talk! How cool is that?

Bald Eagle

The bald eagle is a bird of prey found in North America. A sea eagle, it has two known subspecies and forms a species pair with the white-tailed eagle. It is the official national bird and a national symbol of the United States of America.

America's bird! Strong, majestic, and I just love the snow-white head. They can go up to 10,000 feet in the air!
And they can soar air currents for many hours straight, no rest. Their nest can weigh up to one ton!

Aside from being America's bird, this bird is actually the strongest of all birds.

They are good predators and can do lots of tricks.

Penguin

Penguins (order Sphenisciformes, family Spheniscidae) are aquatic, flightless birds found almost exclusively in the Southern Hemisphere. The only species found north of the Equator is the Galápagos penguin. Penguins are highly adapted to marine life, featuring countershaded plumage and flippers for efficient... read more

Both parents show equal care for their chick. They go fishing together and will fight to their death to defend their chick against skuas, parasitic jaegers, and mammals.
Even with climate change, this bird will definitely survive due to its resilience.

They are my brother's favorite animal, and they are just so cool and unique.

I love them so much, their walk and swim, and call!

Hummingbird

Hummingbirds are birds from the Americas that constitute the family Trochilidae. They are among the smallest birds, with most species measuring between 7.5 and 13 cm in length. Known for their rapid wingbeats and ability to hover, they play a crucial role in pollination across many ecosystems.

This is the only bird that does not use its feet for launching upward in flight! Their wings do all the work. This is my favorite bird because it is the smallest, the cutest, and it looks so innocent and elegant.
This bird is very graceful and sweet.

Definitely the most unique, amazing, and majestic. Has my vote!

Cardinal

Peregrine Falcon

The peregrine falcon, also known simply as the peregrine and historically as the duck hawk in North America, is a widespread bird of prey in the family Falconidae. It is renowned for its speed, reaching more than 200 miles per hour during its hunting stoop. The peregrine falcon is found on every continent... read more

Fact: The fastest animal on Earth, faster than a cheetah. Cute birds too I guess. Zoom, off I go again!

It is in fact the fastest animal on Earth!

I like the peregrine falcon because they are so fast and cool!

Andean Condor

It predominantly feeds on carrion and plays a significant cultural and symbolic role in various Andean societies. The species is listed as vulnerable due to threats... read more

This thing is ugly as heck, but I really like it for some reason.

Is this the result of a cassowary and turkey mutation?

Andean condors are the national bird of 5 countries. They have to be the best.

Peacock

These birds belong to the genera Pavo and Afropavo in the family Phasianidae, which includes pheasants... read more

They're totally amazing. Their face, body, tail, everything about them is just wonderful.

They are the most beautiful birds, well at least the males.

Peacocks look nice, although that's the only thing good about them.

Ostrich

The ostrich, or common ostrich, is one of two extant species of large flightless birds native to Africa. It is the only extant member of the genus Struthio and belongs to the family Struthionidae. In 2014, the Somali ostrich was officially recognized as a separate species from the common ostrich.

Dove

Pigeons and doves constitute the bird family Columbidae, which includes 352 recognized species. They are generally stout-bodied birds with short necks and short, slender bills. They primarily feed on seeds, fruits, and plants and are found worldwide except in the driest and coldest regions.

I love the doves a lot. They are angelic creatures, a gift from the pearly gates of heaven. I feel that we as a society don't deserve doves. They are far too pure for our understanding.
The dove is one of the most beautiful birds in existence, deserving of at least top 4 in this list. Not only do they have a captivating presence, they also stand for something much more, a spiritual aspect that us humans have not ascended to yet.

The symbol of peace. Do I really need to elaborate on this?

Andean Flamingo

Duck

Duck is the common name for numerous species in the waterfowl family Anatidae, which also includes swans and geese. Ducks are generally smaller than their relatives and are found in freshwater and marine habitats across the world.

They're cute, make great pets, and they saved lives in the world wars.

They are actually very clean animals. I want a pet pigeon.

Barn Owl

Crow

I think these birds are pretty cool. I think they're nice, and I read a story about one that learned to talk.
The other crow I like is Crow Hogan from Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's.

We see a lot of stories portraying them as ever so greedy, but they are smart!

Robin

Toucan

Toucans are members of Ramphastidae, a family of near-passerine birds native to the Neotropics. They are recognizable by their large, colorful bills, which are used for feeding and thermoregulation. Toucans are primarily frugivorous but also consume insects and small animals.

This is a colorful, beautiful bird I love.
