trying to think which clubs have nicknames that relate to birds...I'm certain there are more but my Sunday morning brain can only think of the Robins, the Canaries and the Seagulls?

Cardiff - Bluebirds. Not sure how that fits with their new red look though.

If you look outside the UK, and I'm thinking S. Africa, Australia, S. America type places you'll get birds like Emu, Kiwi, Ostrich etc. Just depends how wide you want to extend this thread otherwise we will end up with just what we have up to now.

Far too closely associated to 60's Dick Grayson. Maybe a re-brand to 'Nightwing' is in order.
