yeessssssssss

If they want to add birds with functionality they could put seagulls at the beach. They would gather around you in large numbers and steal your stuff. :) Seriously though, songbirds or hawks or that kinda thing could be really cool. Of course if they added hawks you'd have to protect your chickens and rabbits. :)

Everyone's already pointed out parrots and chickens, but seriously, I think a more ambient mob like bats could be cool. It seems like everything new has to have major interactions and new drops and mechanics. Just something kind of neat in the background to make it look a little more alive might be nice.

parrots + chickens exist

and phantoms kinda

Birds are already in the game. There are Parrots and Chickens.

Well parrots don´t make the cut. I meant birds like vultures, songbirds, and pelicans Something that will make the game harder and more fun.

A bird would be really cool! It would be nice to see something other than parrots (though parrots are really neat), maybe have some common species like Crows or Pigeons, or have the ones that are a bit more friendlier like Robins or Blue Jays (maybe even Hawks or Eagles too)!

how about a bird that actually flies properly

There are already parrots and last time I checked parrots are birds
