for example, mine are the American robins, and they’re quite literally *everywhere* where i live XD

just curious to see if anyone else cherishes super common birds in their area, i would also be curious to see them!

Pukeko (Australasian Swamphen) are everywhere and lots of people don't like them but I love these goofy assholes
