In the original ''[[Rayman 1|Rayman]]'' game, two lovebirds, a blue male and a pink female, can be seen perching atop [[the Musician]]'s house in [[Mr Stone's Peaks]]. They are shown being affectionate to each other.


Two lovebirds, a blue male and a pink female, can be seen perching atop [[the Musician]]'s house in [[Mr Stone's Peaks]]. They are shown being affectionate to each other. Multiple copies of this bird couple can be added to custom levels in ''[[Rayman Designer]]''.
In ''[[Rayman Designer]]'', these birds appear as scenery [[Event (Rayman Designer)|events]] in the [[Blue Mountains|Mountain]] and [[The Caves of Skops|Cave]] worlds.

The most common variety of bird is a tropical, yellow-beaked, toucan-like species which comes in two distinct varieties: those with red plumage and those with purple. These birds are encountered frequently in ''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape]]'', from [[the Woods of Light]] onwards.

In ''[[Rayman 2]]'', the most common variety of bird is a tropical, yellow-beaked, toucan-like species which comes in two distinct varieties: those with red plumage and those with purple.

Perhaps the most significant birds in the [[Rayman (series)|''Rayman'' series]] are the [[Zombie Chicken]]s. These undead creatures are just one result of the [[Robo-Pirate]]s' interference: chickens, terrified by the disruption of the natural balance, began laying dead eggs, from which the [[Zombie Chicken]]s hatched.


Several red birds of this species reappear in ''[[Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc]]''; they are glimpsed in the clearing at the end of the [[Special Invaders]] minigame, and they can be seen taking flight when [[Rayman]] emerges from his underwater duel with [[Céloche]] in [[The Land of the Livid Dead (Rayman 3)|the Land of the Livid Dead]]. At the beginning of the same level, [[Globox]] sees a number of small blackbirds sitting on a wall; he seems quite entertained by them and remarks that they look ‘stupid’.
In [[Rayman 2 (PlayStation)|the PlayStation version]], some [[cage]]s contain [[Minisaurus|Denys]]: small, strange creatures that appear to be a sort of mixture between chickens and dinosaurs. ''[[Rayman Revolution]]'' introduces adult [[Minisaurus|Denys]], which are known as [[Minisaurus]]. The [[Minisaurus]] have been driven mad by the [[Robo-Pirate]]s' interference; formerly peaceful, they now eat the [[Popolopoï]]s, and may charge and hurt [[Rayman]] if he encroaches on [[the Minisaurus Plain]].


Both the red and purple varieties of birds can be seen flying through the trees of [[Aeropolis]] at the very beginning of [[Big Date]], the fourth and final episode of ''[[Rayman: The Animated Series]]''.

==In ''Rayman 3''==
In ''[[Rayman 3]]'', several red birds of the species from ''[[Rayman 2]]'' reappear in ''[[Rayman 3]]''; they are glimpsed in the clearing at the end of the [[Special Invaders]] minigame, and they can be seen taking flight when [[Rayman]] emerges from his underwater duel with [[Céloche]] in [[The Land of the Livid Dead (Rayman 3)|the Land of the Livid Dead]]. At the beginning of the same level, [[Globox]] sees a number of small blackbirds sitting on a wall; he seems quite entertained by them and remarks that they look ‘stupid’.


In the PlayStation version of ''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape|Rayman 2]]'', some [[cage]]s contain [[Deny]]s: small, strange creatures that appear to be a sort of mixture between chickens and dinosaurs. ''[[Rayman Revolution]]'' introduces adult Denys, which are known as [[Minisaurus]]. The Minisaurus have been driven mad by the [[Robo-Pirate]]s' interference; formerly peaceful, they now eat the [[popolopoï]], and may charge and hurt [[Rayman]] if he encroaches on the [[Minisaurus Plain]].
[[Mechanical bird|Disembodied, metal vulture heads]] appear in [[Clearleaf Forest]] twice. When first encountered, they are sleeping as everything is normal in the area. However, if [[Rayman]] attacks a [[Hoodlum]] or [[Telescopic fist|punches]] it, they wake up and start cawing, indicating some sort of danger. They cannot be defeated and can hurt [[Rayman]] if he comes too close. These are probably [[Hoodlum]] invention.


In ''[[Rayman Raving Rabbids]]'' [[Rayman]] is imprisoned by the [[Rabbids]] and the only way to escape is a small window. To reach it Rayman has to make a ladder using every [[plunger]] he wins. Every time he sees his objective a bird comes inside the room and defecates on Rayman's nose. When Rayman reaches the window he catches the bird and sticks a plunger onto its back. The bird in this game is blue with big undivided eyes, and could possibly be a blue tit.
[[Zombie Chicken]]s make a return in [[the Desert of the Knaaren]]. Here [[Rayman]] will be faced with puzzles where he has to carry their eggs while avoiding the [[Zombie Chicken]]s who are constantly moving towards [[Rayman]], thus knocking the egg down.

Multiple flocks of birds can also be found in the background of [[the Bog of Murk]] and [[the Desert of the Knaaren]].


Birds also appear in ''[[Rayman Origins]]'', more especially in the [[Desert of Dijiridoos]] where some are predominant enemies, while others are friendly, allowing the heroes to step on them and use as platforms.
