The Aerie should be a cornerstone of every self-respecting casual bird deck.

Look at the cute little flock of Suntail Hawks. I'll just kill a few with my archers. Now look at the pi$$ed off 6/6 flyer clawing out your eyes.

I run four of these along side four Welkin Hawks in my Bird deck.

My elite army of death birds will take out anything.

The thought of a casual bird deck keeps getting better.

Mine currently uses the new flurry of wings as a great way to dump out those birds in response to getting swarmed. Battle screech is still in there for bird-making.

Sigil captain, while not a bird, adds some interesting effects while airborne aid gives much needed resources.

I built a deck around this card and it's one of my best decks ever.

It's full of Skyshroud Falcons, Welkin Hawks, Bay Falcons and any other bird I feel like. The feather tokens stack up, and then I play Cataclysm. My opponent is left with barely anything, and I swing with my 18/18 flyer with vigilance.

Interestingly, if this becomes a creature somehow (such as through Opalescense) you can add feather counters to it with Aven Mimeomancer.

Make fun of my Storm Crow now !

An awesome card really, I love it. Most birds are cheap and weenie anyway. But suddenly going BANG with flurry of wings makes for a pretty angry flock of birds. I do love swinging for 8/8 Storm crows against Goblins...I get to shout 'TYPHOON CROW !'

Not paying the echo cost of my Raven Familiar has never been so pleasant!

Adding 1-3 Seaside haven to a bird deck suddenly seems interesting to pump them up when your opponent won't kill them for you.

might consider a white/blue bird deck with proliferate

Most birds are 2 CMC, so for 2WWW, you get all of your birds back at once with the buff, and more fodder for more buff.

1) Buff Storm Crow to 16/16
2) Defeat Emrakul in single combat
3) Retire from Magic

This can play as if it read, "birds you control have indestructible." Grafted Wargear can help speed things along, one way or another.

Why doesn't Green get cards like this?
