If you’ve been passing by your Town Hall or Resident Services building in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, you’ll have no doubt also walked past the Notice Board. This is where you can find out about upcoming events taking place on your island, while also giving you a place to hang out with your residents in your spare time. You might have noticed that there are bird hanging around your noticeboard from time to time; here’s what the yellow bird and white owl mean in Animal Crossing New Horizons.
Yellow Bird and White Owl in Animal Crossing New Horizons
The yellow bird and white owl are pretty much the only birds you’ll see in Animal Crossing New Horizons, and while they do look pretty docile for the most part, they can’t actually be caught. Whenever you get close to them, they’ll get spooked and fly away quickly. As far as we can tell, it’s impossible to catch them.
They do serve an aesthetic purpose, though; depending on the time of day, you’ll see either the yellow bird or the white owl perched on the noticeboard. During the daytime, you’ll see the bird there, and during the evening from 5 p.m. onwards, you’ll see the owl on the board instead.
In short, they’re really just there to reflect the change in the time of day, and there’s not much else you can do with them in the game. If you’re looking to catch some creatures, you’ll have to look at the fish and bugs instead. Maybe the birds will serve a greater purpose in a future update, but for now, you should probably just leave them be.
