Personal Data

 * Name: Orange Bird

 * Fan Aliases: None
 * Group Affiliation: The Flock
 * Known Relatives: None

Personality
Little is known about the Orange Bird's personality and demeanor at this time, although judging from his sprite sheet in the games, he appears to be quite cheerful and, from the Ham'o'ween Short Movie, oblivious to events happening around him. The only time he has gotten angry is when candy was stolen from him, hinting he has a gigantic appetite.

History
Little is known about Orange Bird’s history before he met The Flock. When first seen, he was inadvertently and obliviously captured by Pigs while he ate their Halloween candy. The Blues were the first to see him and followed the Pigs in disguise to their fortress with the intent on rescuing him. However, Orange Bird was able to free himself and defeat the King Pig when the greedy pig attempted to eat the piece of candy he wanted to eat. This so enraged Orange Bird that he ballooned up to a ginormous size and pinned the King Pig. This may have been the first time he used this ability.

The Pigs never rest in their quest to steal eggs and the Flock often has to retrieve their eggs on holidays and special occasions.

At an indeterminate time, 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. Orange Bird did not appear originally in Rio, but arrived much later after the others, so it is possible he was not captured originally and made his way to Rio to help rescue The Flock.

In addition to Rio, Orange Bird has also traveled to China.

In another adventure, many of the Flock were whisked into Space via a wormhole, gained super powers and fought the Space King and the Space Pigs. White Bird, Boomerang Bird and Orange Bird appear to have been left behind on the island to protect the eggs.

Appearances
Orange Bird has appeared in the following games:
 * Angry Birds
 * Angry Birds Rio
 * Angry Birds Seasons

Orange Bird first appeared in Angry Birds Seasons episode Ham'o'ween and has appeared sporadically since in Angry Birds Rio and the Classic Angry Birds games.

The Orange Bird inflates explosively like a balloon when a player taps the screen or clicks their mouse (depending on the version of the game they are playing) however, unlike the Black Bird, its expansion doesn't displace all the objects within its blast radius, rather, it forcefully expels the objects closest to it but objects just slightly hit at the extent of the inflation will barely move and even stay in place. This makes him most effective when he lands right next to the desired target, as even though it may hit objects further out, it does little to nothing against them.

Although it expands to a huge size, its strength doesn't change when flying. When the player taps the screen while the bird is flying, it appears as it would cause great damage, but it does minimal damage when fired this way.

When an Orange Bird expands within an enclosed space or crevice smaller than itself, it will quickly push itself outward until it has room.

Note: Orange Bird does not appear in any of the Web-based games, even if he appeared in the original episode prior to its addition to Angry Birds Chrome. It is most likely that he is not included because he was not in the original sprite sheets. By removing him, the original sheets can be used for all Web-based games.

Trivia
