Birds might be one of the rare animals who we humans would swap places with, even considering all the perks and comforts of civilization. The ability to fly, go anywhere, and escape nearly everything is simply too good of a deal to pass up and birds sometimes seem to know it.
The “Birds with threatening auras” Facebook page gathers and shares pics of avians who do not give a single damn. So get comfortable as you scroll through, upvote your favorite posts, and be sure to share your own thoughts and bird-encounter stories in the comments section below. We got in touch with the page's creator to learn more.

I am a Human Owl (nickname by my Hong Kong classmates in 1957) but only one eye (from a bad doctor in 2017). My Chinese classmates still calling me ' Mao Tao Ying = Owl in Cantonese ' at the age of 79. OWL COULD NOT BE DISTURBED DURING THE DAYTIME! ...... from my home in ' The City of Angels, Bangkok '

Bored Panda got in touch with Julia Morales the creator of the “Birds with threatening auras” Facebook page and one of its current admins. She was kind enough to answer some of our questions, starting with how the page was formed in the first place.
“So the story behind this page's creation is that one day I sat down and wondered “What would be a funny bird group name?” and didn’t want a name like “birds” and “bird memes” so that’s how “Birds with threatening auras” was born!” she shared with Bored Panda. Since then, the page has received thousands of regular visitors.

We also were curious to hear how she would describe the name to someone less familiar with internet culture. “I would explain a threatening aura as something bad a bird is doing or hidden undertones. Such as, for example, swans making traffic stops and making people angry just so they can walk across the road with their little swan family.”

Birds have ended up in their fair share of memes, so we wanted to hear Julia’s thoughts on the page’s popularity. “I think it’s the name and the birds being “bad” in some way. It’s a funny genre and I think it’s also due to people calling birds government drones,” she shared with Bored Panda, referencing the satirical “Birds Aren’t Real” campaign.

Met some peacocks while strolling through a park in the UK. Thought I escaped to a nearby bench, but they followed me. Once they saw I hadn't any food for them, they just stood around me and preened. Not hostile at all, more... protective, in a way? I felt rather special actually. 😄

STORY TIME! When I was like 10 I went to Florida to visit some family (grandma and grandpa) during spring break. They decided to take us kayaking (sp?). Well we went down a river, maybe 2 miles, and took a ride thing back. When we got back, there was a flock of peacocks outside the main building and my mom thought it was a good idea to go closer to them to get a picture. So we do that then start walking back to the car. Well, the peacocks slowly started following us. We were gathering a bunch of stuff so we were there for awhile. Ten minutes later, we were all in the car and the car was surrounded by said flock of peacocks. Couldn't drive over them because my grandpa was a sweetheart and also there were like three to the back. Grandpa had to get out and throw down some of our snacks so they would go away from the car. As we were driving out of the parking lot they started chasing us and as we exited they just stood there and watched us drive away. Like something out of a movie idk

Little known fact, Portland, OR is home to one of the US west coast's largest breeding sites for Peregrine Falcons (as seen in this picture). They nest under the plethora of bridges throughout the city.
David Paterson 2 years ago (edited)
Another little known fact. The peregrine falcon is one of the five most widely distributed bird species in the world. It is found on all six continents. And is even a feral pest in some places, such as islands in the Indian Ocean. So when someone tells you that the Peregrine is threatened with extinction, remember to laugh at them.

Mockingbirds are f*****g psychos when it comes to their territory. We have a pair that nest in one of our trees, and man, they will swoop down on any creature passing by. Including humans. Then they’ll perch high up close by and stare at you menacingly. If you don’t believe me, try passing by a tree with a mockingbird’s nest in it.

I have a love hate relationships with mockingbirds. I love to hear all their jabber but in the spring they go on and on all night long. This week there was one who learned to imitate a hawk and was flitting around scaring all the other birds. It then proceeded to jump scare me from behind a bush. This one took it to the next level.
