Cliches about Birds

Birds of a feather flock together. Bird brained. Don't count your chickens before they're hatchet. Free as a bird. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. The early bird catches the worm. The bird has flown. Bird off the ground. What a rare bird. A bird in a gilded cage. Naked as jaybird. Like a box of birds. Sitting in the catbird seat. That's for the birds. Flit around like a little bird. You couldn't pull a pint, never mind a bird. A wet bird never flies at night. Bird's-eye view. Looks like a black cat with a red bird in its mouth. Four and twenty blackbirds baked in a pie. It is not only fine feathers that make fine birds. No bird soars too high, if he soars with his own wings. A little bird told me.

Isn't it fun to learn all the things you can say about birds? I hope the answer is yes. It better be yes, gosh darn it; for all the time I spent coming up with all those things about birds, you had better like it.
