FWIW birds in WoW actually look like birds (ie eagles, crows etc) and they fly from tree to tree/rock to rock, they rest in a tree for a while and then fly to another.

Not strictly true, there are only two types of bird mob in wow with a bunch of reskins, and they generally fly in a circle and land in the same spot. Not really that special or dynamic. That said, it's better than FFXIV's birds.

With this in mind I'm going to say who gives a ***. There are more important things to think about.
