Obviously birds have been suggested before, I just wanted to unify them under one topic.
There should be several types of birds.
Small birds: They would travel in groups of threeish and the group would occupy only one block space.
Specific birds: like robins or blue jays, these birds would travel alone, and would have species specific looks. Good drops.
Large birds: like an eagle or albatross, these birds would be larger, rarer, and may never land. One to two block spaces. Good Drops. Better drops when killed by sword.
Gigantic birds: Giant. Ridable? Eventually?? I'll keep dreaming.

I know next to nothing about programming, so I don't know how hard it'll be for notch to implement this. They could simply be a 2d graphic.
Please give your ideas and suggestions!

Looks good to me.

Obviously he's going to add them sooner or later.. but how?

I'm hoping there will be two kinds, mob and aesthetic. The aesthetics birds would just be cute little birds that fly away when you are nearby, and hang around trees mainly. Sometimes leaving nests with eggs in it (Which need to be cookable..)

* Phoenix, not fenix.
Sorry, I hafta be a grammar Nazi sometimes.
I like you ideas though!

Eagles, Vultures and Crows all are hostile towards the player and pretty big.

Eagles are loners but will always attack you when they can

Vultures only attack you when your health is low

Crows attack in groups when you're carrying metals
