Down with the "crows/ravens are creepy unnatural omens of evil to come" trope. Enough.The owls and vultures too

From now on, all creepy unnatural birds shall be portrayed by cute chirpy species such as canaries and robins or ducklings or fancy elegant ones like peacocks and birds of paradise and swans.Imagine how creepy giant a flock of birds of paradise hanging out in an abandoned Scottish castle would be compared to crows.Crows are just...normal.Omniously crowing peacocks or chirping songbirds.Instead of vultures circling our dying hero imagine a huge cloud of blue tits.Swans sitting in a tree outside a cursed house, hissing.Villain fussing over a cage with bright-coloured,suspiciously bloodthirsty canaries or budgies ( I have budgies.Evil budgies aren't even that much of a stretch, trust me😂). Ever-growing horde of fuzzy yellow chicks following you everywhere with unnatural persistence.Now that's terrifying.

Death Stare- Dino Doodles

I think crow-like beady eyes on dinosaurs are criminally underused.

Also hooded crows are underappreciated.

This was supposed to be a "scary feathered dinosaurs" piece but turned out cute.

Familiar Fridays - Bearded Vulture

One of the craziest looking birds of prey in existence, the Bearded Vulture, though I’d sooner go with mustache vulture.

Birds of prey are birds of prey, but something about this guy always struck me as being more of an eccentric millionaire’s pet than it does a wild animal.

This thing is 100% someone’s familiar. Both the bird itself and the warlock who owned it seem like they’d be voiced by Vincent Price.
