The mod features a wide range of new birds, including:
Blue Jay
Blue-footed Booby

Birds can be found spawning in the world or can be hatched from eggs found in nests, which generate upon trees in your world. Each bird also has multiple species, bringing the total number of birds to more than 100!
A detailed bird encyclopedia gives you information and knowledge on the birds, such as their favourite food, their habitat, gender and variants. Use this book to try and log all the birds in your world!
The 1.12.2 version of this mod is compatible with the Bird's Nests mod.

Thank you immensely to kellixon and pidrosax for the Russian and Spanish translations!
So Im having a issue on 1.12 where is the egg is unidentified I can not throw it. Is that normal?
How do you reduce the spawn rates of all birds? I think it may be affecting other mob spawns as birds are the main thing i find
what would be the ETA for the 1.14.4 update of this mod? I really like this mod and would LOVE to have it in my current survival wold
Are you ever going to update this past 1.12? I'd prefer not to go from 1.14.4 all the way back to 1.12 just to add a bunch of birds. Not worth it to lose all of the new features that have been added and changed in the game.

When I get my internet back, yep!

Hello. configuration tab is not active. How to fix it?
I love this mod but I don't understand how the nests work. If I make one and eggs in it ideally will have baby birds hatch?
In reply to MissNatcula:
Nests will spawn in the wild containing eggs. Nest you place will gradually generate eggs over time. They won't hatch though - you'll have to do that yourself by throwing them, much like normal minecraft eggs :)
I can't disable parrots in the configs.
I love your mod, any chance for an 1.14 update soonish? I realize that people have lives outside modding but a status update would be nice ;). Keep up the very good work!
In reply to aferris86:
Yep! There will be! I can't promise it will be soon as my life has been incredibly busy, but I can't wait to get the new updates out for you all :D
Love the breath of life this mod adds to the game.
And unlike any other mod that adds animals, for some reason you know how to work the spawning system and they are not suppressing the spawn rate of other mobs, such as cows or chickens or flooding a game until crashing with spawns (ZAWA)
Keep up the great work, this is one of my core mods every time I play!
Is there any way of reducing the nest spawns in the config? Every tree in my world has nests in it, I'd like them to be a bit more uncommon than that
EDIT: Found it in the config
ThePavoReality. Lets talk. This mod has parrots and in Minecraft 1.12 parrots are added. So. Parrots in this mod should get removed in the Minecraft 1.12 mod update.
In reply to jtroundtree:
My parrots were around first and I believe even helped to inspire the current parrots in-game. If you would like them removed, you are very welcome to disable them in the configs, though I won't be removing them from the mod, sorry!
In reply to ThePavoReality:
I can't disable them in the configs.
In reply to jtroundtree:
Uh hello. Any respond?
In reply to jtroundtree:
Sort of a douche way to make a request.
My water phoenix won't stop flapping after hatching (hey that rhymes!) and won't follow me I did place the egg and was like three or four blocks away when it hatched.
In reply to mistyhorse2408:
Yes! The phoenixes flap their wings constantly. Think of it kind of like a little exercise they have to do to remain fit. And the phoenixes won't follow you, though you can add a saddle onto them and ride them!
