Birds

The Bird is a flying background character that cannot harm players. Birds have only 5 health, and can be damaged by other mobs including the player, which almost always results in their instant death.

The Bird is white and small (possibly resembling a dove), much like the bat or cave bat. They are found on ground level and are as common as a bunny. Much like the Vulture, the Bird remains still until approached, whereupon it will fly away.

Bird Statue spawns Birds when an electrical charge is passed through using wires.

Trivia

 * Birds always face the player.
 * If a bird is killed at the crack of dawn in hard mode while still on the ground, it has a chance to drop a mechanical worm. This is based off the phrase "The early bird gets the worm."
