Birds are the protagonists of the Angry Birds series and come in varieties of different species and sizes. Their main goal is to retrieve the eggs that the Bad Piggies have stolen. Ever since they were first stolen, they have tried numerous attempts to get them back; even defeating pigs. They hurl themselves using the slingshot at the various fortresses the pigs made. There are 9 playable birds in Angry Birds Classic, 9 in Seasons, 10 in Rio, 7 playable birds and 1 egg in Space, 10 playable birds and 1 playable pig (Leonard) from Angry Birds 2, & 7 birds from Angry Birds Star Wars and 1 egg. When a level is completed with unused birds, the player is awarded 10,000 points for each unused bird, regardless of type. This increases the chance of getting 3 stars in a level.

The birds formerly lived in Bird Island but then moved to Piggy Island for unknown reasons. Both Bird Island and Piggy Island are based on islands in the Pacific Ocean.

All the grown birds have three or more feathers as a tail, while younger birds only have two.

Special Powers
If the screen is touched or clicked while a bird is moving, it will activate a special power or an unusual noise. This is unavailable if the bird has become a corpse except for Bomb, Terence, Bubbles, their Space versions, Stella, Cheetos, Space Egg, and the Ice Bird, but Blu uses his power as soon as he hits an object. Mighty Creatures can be bought and once their item is launched they fly after it attacking the level.

Special Powers from the Original App
These birds are the Flock and the Mighty Eagle, their friend and ally, and they all have appeared in the first three apps (the Original, Seasons, and Rio) and most have appeared (in a new form) in Angry Birds Space (except Matilda, Hal, and Mighty Eagle) and in Angry Birds online games like Angry Birds Friends.


 * Red - Squawks when you tap or click the screen, but has no special powers.
 * Jay, Jake, and Jim - Multiplies into 3, and each clone is bumped slightly up or down. (Strong against ice and glass but weak against other blocks).
 * Chuck - Gains more speed (it always goes at the same certain speed, no matter what speed it was moving at before) and makes a more of a high pitched sound than before. (Strong against wood but weak against ice)
 * Bomb- Able to explode in mid-air or on impact. (Great at breaking stone)
 * Matilda - Drops an egg which then explodes. The bird herself becomes deflated and is propelled fast upwards and to the right. The body still collides and can be used as a powerful Red.
 * Hal - On air, opens his beak and flies in the opposite direction, maintaining the same speed and vertical direction. Underwater, turns into a corpse. He also flies higher than all the other birds when fired.
 * Terence - Stronger than common birds, but no real power. (Great at breaking all blocks)
 * Bubbles - Expands to a huge size, like a balloon, propelling all blocks away while in a tight space in either mid-air or on impact. After impact, it deflates.
 * Mighty Eagle - Smashing everything and causes an earthquake, eliminating any pig on the level. (Summoned using Sardines)
 * Stella - Has the ability to blow bubbles and piggies, blocks, and other obstacles in the radius of the bubble will fly in the air in multiple pink, blue, or green bubbles. Once the bubbles are popped, everything will fall down causing massive damage to both the pigs and the fortresses.

From Angry Birds Seasons

 * Mighty Dragon - descends in a staircase-like form, loops around, and darts back up, popping all piggies and destroying obstacles in his way, similar to Mighty Eagle. (summoned by using the Red Koi Fish) (Year of the Dragon only)
 * Mighty Basketball - Like the Mighty Eagle, but falls on the level then bounces again. (Ham Dunk only, summoned using an unknown white object)
 * Tony - Goes down vertically and creates a shockwave when contacts with a block.

From AB Rio

 * Blu and Jewel chained together - When tapped or clicked, Jewel flies straight dragging Blu along.
 * Blu freed and solo - Once he hits an object, he'll shake himself up causing the spreading of objects.
 * Samba Bird - Once he hits an object, he'll start dancing causing objects to fly in different directions.

From AB Space

 * Ice Bird - Ice Bird freezes an area on impact. Ice Bird explodes a couple of seconds after impact with any piece of structure and covers the surrounding blocks and pigs with ice making them brittle and easier to break. If the screen is not tapped, Ice Bird will hesitate for a few seconds, still turning surfaces it touches into ice; making the Ice Bird a technical variation of Bomb. It also has a Sling Scope.
 * Super Red Bird - Similiar to Red, but if near a pig in a gravitational force and if the screen is tapped, the pig(s) will get scared. He still makes a noise when this happens. It also has Sling Scope power. (Red)
 * Lightning Birds - Same as the Blues, but with a Sling Scope. (Blues)
 * Lazer Bird - Similiar to Chuck, but tapping now chooses a directional target. Lazer Bird will turn at a sharp angle and accelerate toward the target tap, ignoring gravity and air vents until hitting something or running out of speed. It also has Sling Scope power. (Chuck)
 * Fire Bomb Bird - Same as Bomb, with slightly higher knockback. It also has the Sling Scope power. (Bomb)
 * Monster Bird - Same as Terence, but with the Sling Scope. (Terence)
 * Atom Bird - Same as Bubbles, except, the deflated Bubbles no longer does damage and floats in gravity fields instead of falling. It also has Sling Scope. (Bubbles)
 * Space Egg - The space egg can create a small but very powerful black hole that appears on screen for a short time. It can be used kind of like a magnet, to pull things around. It also has the Sling Scope. (Eggs)
 * Space Eagles - Similiar power as the Mighty Eagle, but Space Eagles will only do some damage to the level, but there are no time restrictions on use, and you can use several per level since they travel in Flocks. They fly out of a vortex. (Summoned using Sardines, also has the sling scope.) (Mighty Eagle)

From Angry Birds Star Wars

 * Luke Skywalker - At first no power. After level 1-9, he slices with a blue lightsaber. After completing the Path of the Jedi, he slices with a green lightsaber which causes even more damage.
 * Obi-Wan Kenobi - Pushes things away with the force in the direction where you tapped. After a Death Star level, he uses force stronger and pushes things upward where the player taps.
 * Han Solo - Shoots three lasers in the direction the player taps.
 * Rebel Pilots - Same ability to split into three like the Blue Birds.
 * Chewbacca - Same as Big Brother Bird, but causes the screen to shake.
 * R2-D2 - Electrocutes nearby pigs.
 * C-3PO - Breaks into 5 pieces.
 * Princess Leia - Pulls objects toward her in the direction the player taps.

From AB Cheetos

 * Cheetos - Like Bomb, if it hits a structure, it simply blows up, causing a small amount of damage. If the screen is clicked when it is in mid-air, it blows up, but this time it releases four explosive Cheetos.

From AB Philadelphia Eagle

 * Mighty Philadelphia Eagle - Same as Mighty Eagle, but after a few seconds after it hits the ground the game goes in slow motion for a few seconds and flashes, then back to normal. (Summoned using football .)

From Angry Birds 2

 * Red - When you tap the screen, his battle cry will release an aura of his anger.
 * Silver - Does a 360-degree loop and goes down, if she comes in contact with a stone block, she creates an earthquake.


 * Leonard (Pig but considered bird in-game) - Can shoot 3 snot bombs but is very fragile and instantly pops upon contact with anything.

Trivia

 * There are 24 confirmed blue birds including their counterparts in other games (The Blues, Olive and Greg, Blu, Jewel, the Mighty Philadelphia Eagle, Ice Bird, Luca, Willow, Tony, Serdar Soganci Bird, Shirley, Phillip, The Lightning Birds, The Wedge Antilles Birds and the Jedi Youngling Birds) (Not counting the Angry Birds Evolution Birds or Hatchlings).
 * An artist named Sam Spratt painted realistic pictures of the birds.
 * For an update, Bomb has a new voice, for Angry Birds, however, it was replaced with the old voice in recent updates of Angry Birds Classic.
 * The birds seem to be kind to other species (Except for piggies when they steal eggs) because they save and help animals in the games and cartoons.
