Talyxian Bird is a blanket term within the Talyxian organism group which is attributed towards smaller sized, winged animals or detachable organs, both of which feature the ability to fly. 
#REDIRECT [[Talyxian-Flyers]]
 
In colloquial language, they are generally referred to with multiple, different names ranging from “bird”, “flying bug”, “butterfly”, “bee” down to “humming bug”, depending on their species type, size, shape and ecology.
 
There are two creatures which can be seen on page 2 of the manga, from Episode 1 “Gathering Herbs” which also belong to this type of creature.
 
 
 
= Summary =
 
As opposed to single organism living beings, they can be said to take up the form of a partial and detachable organ stemming from a different Talyxian creature, which acts as the parent organism for them. They are still able to travel freely from their base creature, however, it is still unclear if they, themselves, can be considered an independent life form.
 
They are capable of growing out from many kinds of Talyxian creatures (most of them are classified as “Settled” type, stationary and remaining in a fixed location), as an individual bud as part of the larger conglomerate of body parts. When they take flight away from the base organism, they will be “used” by other species creatures, in a very wide range or fashion.
 
Given that the T-birds themselves have little to no internal organs or reproductive ability, they are used as vessels or “vehicles” for other species and their creatures, and their life cycle will invariably come to an end due to various encounters or results depending on their purpose and the environments they find themselves surrounded by. Some creatures may use them as their seed carriers or pollinators, or even as remote parasitic organisms. A “used” bird may be subsequently be reused by several creatures or even other Talyxian species. When this happens, they become mobile again after settling down, and can be modified into a different bird type entirely. There is even a creature which eats or intakes a bird within their inner body in order to be used as their own organ.
 
Due to this, as their ecology is extremely varied and dependant on the usage of other species which, in turn, make use of them, it is very difficult to pin down a specific methodology and guidelines.
 
Common birds feature strong traits stemming from both Black and White Talyxians, and in fact, they are close kin to the Talyxian moles, biologically.
 
Red birds can be found inside of a flower which is grown from the Talyxian Rice Frog as their reproductive organ, but they are comparatively rare species, which parasitizes on Eltus organisms. These creatures can also be sometimes seen in brackish water areas.
 
 
 
= Biology =
 
Talyxian bird wings are paired in groups of minimum two, to a maximum of eight, and in shapes that range from insect-like to airplane-like wings. Also, species which feature no wings will not be referred to as “bird”, even if they have similar or identical biological nature with T-birds. Most of them have a lightweight and firm carapace that come in colors which range from black to white. They also feature a wide variation in shape and pattern.
 
Generally, T-birds share the same body shape under these conditions: they have grown on the same parent creature, and all emerge from their buds to fly off at the same time. However, if they have grown on different parent creatures, they will have different body shapes. Furthermore, even if they have grown on the same parent creature, if they each emerge during a different season, they will each display different body shapes. This system can be compared to that of a snowflake.
 
Within the Talyxian biome forests, there are also red birds which feature wings akin to moist petals, but most of them rarely go out of the forest area. Alternatively, some of them will not have the ability to fly and spend their lifetime parasitizing other creatures instead.
 
Most of the small-sized birds fly with their wings and their movement is regarded to be similar to that of hummingbirds and insects.
 
Large-sized birds will travel while gliding as their large wings do not move about so much.
 
Some birds may opt to just perform an unpowered flight at all times and will not show any reaction even if other life forms will attempt to catch them if flying nearby. Meanwhile, some birds may just flee away swiftly when they will have sensed a disturbance in the flow of air currents.
 
The birds which have an animal-like sensory organ, such as vision and hearing, are rather few in kind. Most of them will show a nervous, reflexive and botanical response which is similar to what sensitive plants do, such as moving their antenna in a twitching manner when it has been touched.<br/> &nbsp;
