A friend of mine recently started drawing some pictures and they all have to do with birds in popular video games. Were not talking the random encounter type. Were talking when you play the game you see these damn birds everywhere type.
What other games used birds to this extint?
List all that you can. I can not think of any others.

Harvest Moon for SNES has chickens you can buy.
Mega Man games have some cool dive bombing birds. I think that at least there is one in the frog man world in MM4.
Pocky & Rocky (maybe 2) has birds on archways.
Do Bats count? Castlevania and MegaMan games.
Ninja Gaiden for NES has some vicious birds.
Donkey Kong Country has an Ostrich to ride.
I think you can evolve into a bird on EVO The Search for Eden (SNES)
I think Earthworm Jim games had birds.
Is Kirby a bird?

extint birds? The Dodo?
One of the fighting games used to have a pirate character with a parrot which attacked you. I can't remember which.
How about games based on the character Big Bird? :D
Road Runner games.

Ninja Gaiden had those godforsaken eagles that would always hit me right as I was jumping over a hole, thereby knocking me INTO the hole. I hate them so much!!!!!
The Mega Man X games had some bird bosses: Storm Eagle, Storm Owl, Cyber Peacock, and wind Crowrang.
In breath of fire 1&2 you could ride around on a huge pink bird called the great bird.

The blasted birds from Battle of Olympus on the mountain. 10x worst then the ones on the NG games. Those and the monkeys (Think Castlevania Fleamen on speed). God, I hate them...
