When people compare themselves to animals, it’s usually a fox, a mule, or a lioness. However, as Encounters at the End of the World by Werner Herzog (2007) showed, sometimes a penguin suddenly leaving everyone behind and walking alone toward the mountains is who we relate to most.

We at Bored Panda want to remind you that we shouldn’t forget our feathery friends. They’re also full of personality and are simply trying their best to get by. So here’s a bunch of bird memes that hit just right.

For those wondering, we found them on Instagram accounts @memes.bird and @nickthepelican.

    It's to make you feel safe like the Black Heron with fish (currently #2). Shortly after these pictures were taken, the swans broke her neck/ suffocated him like a python would.

    Victorian men were horrified to discover that a) it was the females that chose the mate and the males that had to win their approval and b) in many species the female bird is larger than the male. In fact the second fact went so against what they believed was the natural order of things, as ordained by God, that they simply drew them smaller than the males anyway.
