  • The backgrounds alone are amazing! Not to mention the movements and designs of the birds!
  • @TubbyTarchia
    Can't believe you actually killed off a major character and didn't bring them back, it's not what I expected from a short like this but it was a pleasant surprise, especially seeing as it genuinely contributed to the plot and wasn't there for shock value or cheap sympathy. Goes to show that you can still tell just as impactful of a story and have a happy conclusion

    Why is this only suddenly coming up on people recommended a year later?!? Youtube this is outrageous!

    " how are we gonna make a male and a female?" " idk all pelicans look the same" " pink" " what-" " lashes too" " but-" " shush"
  • @txrafafy
    This video is beautiful, with all the adorable expressions and detailed movements. Also, every time the small blue bird does literally anything I find cute, from it’s little flying animation to the faces and poses it does, I can’t help but say ‘Awwww!’ You are WAY too underrated! Keep up the good work, I absolutely adore this animation you have created!
  • @NerdAlert4224
    Ok but I really love the sound effects. The water noises, especially the sounds of the flippers hitting the dock are so satisfying, they’re right on the nose
  • @kiwiwolfpup8242
    Why am I only getting this recommend to me now?! This was amazing! Keep up the amazing work!
  • When the differences are magnified, loving become difficult. When the similarities are magnified it becomes easier to love, care and share.
  • @goldeneagle8740
    There aren't enough animations about birds, I absolutely LOVE the way the cormorant and pelicans are animated!
  • @vemm11_org34
    hurts me that i’m just now seeing this a year later but that looks amazing
  • @wildguy4773
    The love between the pelicans is easy to see, but nothing destroys friendship between him and the little cormorant

    Why is it only now that it was recommended to me!? This is so amazing!
  • @sierra1621
    Loved the style and expressions of the characters. So sweet!

    I've literally come across for short animated films with the same "birds of a feather" title. Must just be a really popular name for thesis films involving birds I suppose.
