Bird (Mother)

Birds are recurring enemies in the Mother series, while a few instead assist the player. Normally, these birds are not different from real birds, and they present no alteration to their behaviour either.

Crows
Crows appear in Podunk and in some areas surrounding it. In the original Japanese version, they were holding a cigarette, but this was edited for the unreleased American version and Mother 1+2.

Spiteful Crows, from EarthBound, are not so different from Mother's Crows, except their size was reduced. They, too, are notable for being able to steal a character's items. In none of the first two games where crows appear, they have a more powerful version, unlike other enemies.

Eagles
Eagles are found around Merrysville, and are among the standard enemies the characters usually find in the overworld.

Balding Eagles appear in Mother 3, in Oriander Canyon, near Drago Plateau. They can rest their feathers and heal themselves.

Blue Balding Eagles are the more powerful version of Balding Eagles. They are found in the Argilla Cliffs, near the relatively near to the other type of eagles.
