While you may know the common varieties by their smug smirks, haughty shrugs, eye rolls, knowing nods, slow claps, and passionate, encyclopedic knowledge of niche genres and hobbies, several species can also be recognized in the wild by their passionate calls alone, especially in the coming mating season:

-The Northern Cascadia Plaidback
"I liked Avatar when it was called FERNgully"
-The Common Film Thrush
"I will DIE on this hill"
-The Obscure Mudbreasted Tit Warbler
"BeFORE it was COOL! BeFORE it was COOL!"
-The Midwestern Crusted Finch
"Genres are labels"
-The Yellow-Tailed West Coast Pelican
"Never too HOPPY!"
-The Crafted Lager Lark
“Free RANGE! Free RANGE!”
-The Ethical Marten Boot Sparrow
"Yooprolly never HEEEAAARD of it"
-The Sarcastic Fiddle Crane
"Land del REY! Lana del REY!"
-The Conventional Tufted Concert Goose
"The book was better"
-The Gilded Library Marsh Falcon
"Hidden gem! Hidden gem!"
-The Speckled Record-Crate Woodpecker
“Is it local?”
-The Hundred-Mile Barn Owl
“I’ve never seen Game of Thrones.”
-The Trend-Eschewing Snooted Loon
"Vegan beeHIVE! Vegan beeHIVE!"

“I only cry at anime”
-The Fleshlight Whippoorwill
"CelluLOID! CelluLOID!"
