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.

When it's cold enough to see the melody
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.
Baby blueberry is extremely hostile. Must return to lab for further specifications. Our results of crossing a blueberry with a t-rex are proving most risky
When the cleaning lady just finished mopping at work but there's no other way to get to my desk.
This has got to be the LAST time I let myself get sucked into Uncle Filberts monopoly games. Three days of cold pizza and flat beer. Three days of my life I'll never see again. Speaking of seeing things, have you seen Janice and the kids?? Anyone???

Looks like the Karate Kid and the move that won Daniel the match in the original one.
At first glance I thought this eagle was wearing a pair of heels Also, looks like a teenager walking in heels for the first time 😄
Not too sure about these heels. But hey, if Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis could do it, so can I!
Yeah? Next time you drop your handbag on the ice you can get it back yourself Martha!

I had a bird that would crawl underneath a blanket and demand to be petted on your lap and if you moved the blanket it would hiss. BIRDS ARE WEIRD!
