Once they spot [[Mario]] underneath, they drop an [[egg]]; getting hit by the egg or the bird itself results in Mario losing a life. The eggs laid by birds can be deflected with a [[handstand]], while the birds themselves are impervious to any attacks. In [[Fire Mountain (world)|Fire Mountain]], regular birds are replaced by [[fire bird]]s. | ||
In the [[Mario vs. Donkey Kong (Nintendo Switch)|remake for the Nintendo Switch]], birds pause above Mario before dropping their eggs. They can also be [[stomp]]ed on. In addition, they appear to be organic, unlike other games. | |||

It is more clearly depicted as a toy, with metallic-looking joints under its wings. It serves as an obstacle to the [[Mini Mario (toy)|Mini Mario]]s, swooping down on them if they are underneath it. Each time Donkey Kong is damaged, the bird briefly increases in speed and drops eggs towards the Mini Marios. A Mini Mario can drop a [[Banana Bunch]] on the bird to temporarily destroy it. The bird reappears shortly after being destroyed. | ||
