Personality
The Blue Birds, unlike the others, get surprised when it comes to egg theft and smuggled birds. They are daring and inquisitive and often get themselves into trouble and cause mischief, causing the Flock to have to intervene. They are the youngest members of The Flock They are kind of like a foster son to White Bird. And they also admire the mighty eagle's power. Unlike the other birds, they are fond of the mighty eagle and they visit him often, according to the comics.

History
Little is known about The Blues’ history before the events of the first Angry Birds game. Red Bird, Yellow Bird and one Blue Bird were the first to discover the first eggs missing after severely attacking an insect for landing on their eggs.

In the course of the battles with the Pigs, he has traveled to many different locations and environments, including the desert, underground caves and beaches. The Pigs never rest in their quest to steal eggs and the Flock often has to retrieve their eggs on holidays and special occasions. In one instance, the Pigs captured the entire Flock, including The Blues. It was only for the actions of Terence, the Big Brother Bird that the Flock was freed.

At an indeterminate time later, the Flock was captured as rare birds and taken to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil where they fought with Blu and Jewel and their friends against Nigel the cockatoo and Mauro and his marmosets.

Strategy

 * Have the blue bird get near the ice. Before making contact, split it. It will cause major destruction on it.
 * If you use the blue bird on wood, it will shatter one piece of it, even though you already split it.
 * Try to not use the blue bird on stone. They are useless on it. However, they can topple it over, but it's not worth using him on stone.
 * Never use the blue bird on ground. They don't do anything with it. The can't topple it either.

{C}They first appeared in the 10th level of the first episode, Poached Eggs and have appeared as a playable character in every version and episode of the game released so far, though he is not necessarily in all levels. In the Fuji TV exclusive episode: Sakura Ninja, the Blue Birds appear dressed as taiko drummers. This was the first time they have appeared in costume in any game and completely new game sprites were created for this episode.

These birds are the weakest playable characters but have the unique ability to multiply into three identical copies. This ability is triggered by touching the screen or clicking the mouse (depending on the version of the game the player is using).

The Blue Bird's splitting ability can be exploited in different ways. By splitting just before impact with an obstacle, the three birds' force on impact is concentrated for maximum force. Alternately, the birds can be split early allowing them to spread out and hit more obstacles at once.

While the Blue Birds do not cause much damage with most obstacles, they do have a unique strength against glass/ice, able to penetrate it with surprising ease. {C}
