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
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!
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
It also uses the "angular male, rounded female" cue: the male pelican has a triangle-shaped head if you ignore the bill, whereas the female has an oval head.
Yeah but it does the job. I mean you figured out it was female didn’t you? That’s the point. You can whine about stereotypes all you want, but it’s a fucking cartoon bird.
i still don't get the pont of making a female and a male. Like my comment says, all pelicans look the same. If you wanna make the two cifferent why don't just give one a scar or something like that ? It's not just about stereotypes you know?
A wonderful bird is the pelican, His beak can hold more than his belly can. He can take in his beak, Enough food for a weak, But I’m damned if I know how the hell he can!
Thank you for all your amazing comments! I’m so pleased it has suddenly found an audience on RUclips. This is just the motivation I need to keep going on the long journey of completing my next short film. Possible spoiler alert: - - If you’re wondering what happened to the female pelican, in my mind she was injured (not dead). Now she’s being rehabilitated in a wildlife sanctuary. I probably should have put a clue to this in the credits but will definitely put an easter egg for this in my next film.
One thing I thought was... "Maybe Mama bird got injured and she was rescued by humans and brought to a raptor rehabilitation center and was released in a different location... and maybe when baby bird and papa bird fly together they'll see her in the distance flying to them!" Still a lovely story even with the sadness
I Feel Sooo Bad For The Poor Pelican Who Lost His Mate & The Only Thing Left Of Her Is a Small Feather, But Aleast He Made Friends With The Small Bird & Showed Him The Best Fishing Spot❤️🦋🌹😎
I study birds, here are the species based on my studies. -Australian Pelicans(Both Male and female) Because they have the iconic S-shaped neck when flying, and obviously because of their gular pouch. - Cormorant(Black Bird), because cormorants cant fly, and swim to achieve food such as fish. They also sunbathe by spreading their wings and standing still.😊
@@jaguarlegoanimations9826 Yes that indeed is correct, they CAN fly as well as a pigeon. They flap alot more often(to gain medium speed) and alot of young adults have a minimum amount of wing feathers which means they don't fly very well like most seabirds do. Sorry if I wasn't being too specific on the comment. Just wanted others to know that they don't fly as good as an average seabird.
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.
The animation is awesome, characters well designed, and the plot is really good. I don't get how such awesome animations like this don't get the attention, you deserve a whole lot of attention!
The main character was a cormorant, which was amazing. In my opinion, all birds are underrated. We don't get movies and TV shows about birds often, and rarely do we ever get one that decipts birds realistically. I always find that in bird movies and TV shows they mostly go with some stereotype when they are writing the bird such as getting the beak color wrong (a lot of birds have gray beaks but they make them yellow) or they make the birds live in their nest year round, or the worst stereotype BY FAR is the one that DOMESTIC CATS are totally a natural predator to birds, they are actually an invasive species.
I love this! The animation is so smooth and the story line is great.I’m also glad that cormorants are getting some love. They are definitely underrated birds.
BBL (Bird Boy Love) how wonderful ❤ It’s sad to see the mr pelican’s wife die unseen by storm ⛈ 😢 but I think a new beginning has begun for both different sea birds
THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL!! and sad.... I love the collors and the backgrounds just AMAZING! Also it discribes these birds very well cause many birds like parrots or how you showed us pelicans stay together with theyre mate for they're entire life .This is probably one of the most professional animations i have ever seen! Srry for bad English
La historia es confusa, trata de hacernos entender el duelo pero lo ve como algo que se soluciona con un buen amigo. Perder al amor de tu vida es doloroso y uno no se recupera tan facilmente.
Bruh, Wow The details, smoothness + the contexte, this film is so wholesome! This is so Underrated! Bruh, you need WAY more subscribers and attention! Keep up the good work! :D
How am I just now seeing this?! Just popped up on my recommendations and I love it! Looks like you have really been blowing up in the last few days. Good job! You earned yourself a new subscriber! 👏
This animation is so good. How did I not see it sooner? This video should be famous with all animatiers. I’m gonna save theirs in my “my favorite animations” playlist. Keep up the great work!!!
I’m not sure if you made this or not but if you did, great job! This looks amazing and very smooth. If you didn’t, thank you anyways for posting this, without you, I wouldn’t have seen a great animation like this
Hi, thanks for your comments. Yes, I made everything you see on screen & it took me many years. I had some wonderful people do the sound design and music for me & help getting it out into the festivals.
Omg this was so cute but so sad at that same time but the fish that the placing fought was so chill for no reason and still got away I hope you continue with your work your and everyone who sees this comment have a good day😀😁
The backgrounds alone are amazing! Not to mention the movements and designs of the birds!
Thank you. I particularly enjoy the design stage of the process.
nice video..
❤
I ❤ ur art
What that little bird meant to be a duck?

Hey not every day we have a short with GoOd EnDiNg
We need more sad or Idk shorts
Because oof only happy ending xd
@@Ajakdow Life is already full of shitty endings. So are a lot of the short films on youtube.
@@Ajakdow Idk what shorts you watch but 7/10 they're depressing. 👀 It's rare to get a happy ending one.
Why is this only suddenly coming up on people recommended a year later?!? RUclips this is outrageous!
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!
Thank you 😊. I’m glad you feel that way about the little bird because that’s how I feel too.
CRIMINALLY underrated
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
" how are we gonna make a male and a female?"
" idk all pelicans look the same"
" pink"
" what-"
" lashes too"
" but-"
" shush"
Oh come on it's super subtle. Plus she looks more like a real pelican than the male
@@larslionheart I agree that's it's rather well done compared to most. It's barely there, instead of in your face about it like a lot of animations.
It also uses the "angular male, rounded female" cue: the male pelican has a triangle-shaped head if you ignore the bill, whereas the female has an oval head.
Yeah but it does the job. I mean you figured out it was female didn’t you? That’s the point. You can whine about stereotypes all you want, but it’s a fucking cartoon bird.

It's not just about stereotypes you know?
Why am I only getting this recommend to me now?! This was amazing! Keep up the amazing work!
A wonderful bird is the pelican,
His beak can hold more than his belly can.
He can take in his beak,
Enough food for a weak,
But I’m damned if I know how the hell he can!
When the differences are magnified, loving become difficult.
When the similarities are magnified
it becomes easier to love, care and share.
There aren't enough animations about birds, I absolutely LOVE the way the cormorant and pelicans are animated!
I love how gentle this feels to watch ❤️
Thank you for all your amazing comments! I’m so pleased it has suddenly found an audience on RUclips. This is just the motivation I need to keep going on the long journey of completing my next short film.

This was amazing! I love how much emotion and personality are in all of the characters! Beautiful work!! 🥺🥺😍
Thank RUclips for shoving it in our recommended!
What kind is the gray bird, BTW?
@@Tsubahi hi 👋, it’s a cormorant.
One thing I thought was... "Maybe Mama bird got injured and she was rescued by humans and brought to a raptor rehabilitation center and was released in a different location... and maybe when baby bird and papa bird fly together they'll see her in the distance flying to them!"
Still a lovely story even with the sadness
This is unbelievably underrated.
I saw you on “Bird of a Feather” too! :D
I Feel Sooo Bad For The Poor Pelican Who Lost His Mate & The Only Thing Left Of Her Is a Small Feather, But Aleast He Made Friends With The Small Bird & Showed Him The Best Fishing Spot❤️🦋🌹😎
Loved the style and expressions of the characters. So sweet!
Thank you 😊
So this is in our recommendation now
The love between the pelicans is easy to see, but nothing destroys friendship between him and the little cormorant
love is equally important thou
Why is it only now that it was recommended to me!? This is so amazing!
I study birds, here are the species based on my studies.

- Cormorant(Black Bird), because cormorants cant fly, and swim to achieve food such as fish. They also sunbathe by spreading their wings and standing still.😊
Comorants can fly just as well as your average pigeon. Not tryna be rude but i don't think you study birds if you don't know that...
@@jaguarlegoanimations9826 Yes that indeed is correct, they CAN fly as well as a pigeon.

@@owlspirited ok
The concept of pelicans adopting a cormorant child is very wholesome to me
0:38 Thought the bird had a derp tongue-
LOL IF YOU PAUSE ON IT IT LOOKS LIKE IF HIS TOUNGE WAS LICKING HIMSELF
note:the tounge is actually food in normal animation
बहुत अच्छा है
That fish was like “can one of ya’ll eat me, or...?” 😂
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.
The animation is awesome, characters well designed, and the plot is really good. I don't get how such awesome animations like this don't get the attention, you deserve a whole lot of attention!
hurts me that i’m just now seeing this a year later but that looks amazing
I love the sound track for this film.
This was absolutely amazing! How does it not have more views?! People are missing out on this animation
Love this! The cormorant's design is so cute.
Aww! I feel sad for the pelican when he didn't find his love.At last he made friendship with the cormorant.
This is a masterpiece and I like how you used an underrated bird like the pelican

I see the fish and i think "don't just be cute run for your life dumb !"
that's very a chill fish XD
This is an amazing story. Hope to see more like this
wow. I've never seen a cartoon about a Double Breasted Cormorant before.
You mean double-crested ? But he's not, I think it's a common Cormorant.
BBL (Bird Boy Love) how wonderful ❤
It’s sad to see the mr pelican’s wife die unseen by storm ⛈ 😢 but I think a new beginning has begun for both different sea birds
This was absolutely amazing! You deserve so much more!
So beautiful and touching animation!
I really feel so sorry for that poor bird to lost his mate
You are underrated!!!
I love how smooth this whole thing is!! and the film itself is adorable!!
Thank you for you lovely comment.

Dude this is freaking amazing, you deserve more attention
Hi, thank you 😊. All of a sudden in the last few days RUclips is suggesting my film 🤷♀️ and people are watching and enjoying it.

This short is absolutely beautiful!
OKAY BUT HIS WIFE DIED
Fear not! The animator said she intends to put the wife in another video, 'cause she's injured rather than dead. We'll have to stay tuned, I suppose.

Are they his parents? Or not?
Do they still need to feed him, do they still feed him? Idk.
No, he's just a smaller type of bird.
No!
Beautiful!!!!!!!

This is so beautiful! I really love the backgrounds and the animation is so goodd and I can feel the emotion. Keep up the good work ^^
When she died in the hurricane!!!!!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Even though he lost his girl he gained a homie at least.
So that is a family of pelicans with a baby pelican
no, the grey one is a cormorant [i think]
@@henriquedearruda8902 I don't think so not quite
Lol could tell pretty early one of those pelicans was gonna die. Thought it would be the dude though. Still a good animation and story of course!

I really think that it is so beautiful and so lovely animation show video in the whole world.
I wondering what happened to the female bird .
I think she either was really injured or killed off…..
@@dragonzrule7530 thanks for agreeing with me
Wow what a view... super ❤️❤️❤️
This is amazing!
Hope I can fly like a 🐦
This is amazing I love it and I hope to see more in the future 😊
The little bird is a cormorant.
Thought they where bigger and had longer beaks
Me role-playing in feather family
True
omg trueee
Beatiful
Iittle cute animation
Criminally underrated, remember me when this gets million's of views
this is like a cartoon your good
Pelican and comorrant
In real life pelicans are a bully
Aaawwww :) but also aaaawww :(
Why people gotta be sad? ;-;
The animation is so fluid and their movements look so natural. Love everything about this ❤
Omg this was so cute but so sad at that same time but the fish that the placing fought was so chill for no reason and still got away I hope you continue with your work your and everyone who sees this comment have a good day😀😁
It' s a beautiful animation
Reminds me of Finding Nemo obviously from the pelicans, but the death of that female pelican, a great example of grief and sadness.
The koi fish was like: Those 2 are starring at each other better find my self out to freedom
Pelican: oh no you don't
koi: Oh yes I do.
