The Huebirds' migration is considered a wonderful event, and tours of the [[Birds of the Universe|planet of the Huebirds]] are conducted. During one such tour, the {{Nihongo|announcer|アナウンス|Anaunsu}} attempts to warn the Huebirds to be careful and to line up properly, as they are very crowded and could get hurt otherwise. The birds tweet and squak, attempting to say that they don't understand. The announcer gets increasingly frustrated with each attempt, until the birds finally line up. The tour ends with the announcer explaing that the Huebirds are lovely creatures with their own sense of order, and have behaved this way for generations. They then announce they will look at [[The Blue Birds]] (in ''[[Minna no Rhythm Tengoku]]'', ''[[Beat the Beat: Rhythm Paradise]]'' and ''[[Rhythm World Wii]]'') or an altogether different species, the {{Nihongo|Eloquent Tapir}} (in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]''), in the next tour. | The Huebirds' migration is considered a wonderful event, and tours of the [[Birds of the Universe|planet of the Huebirds]] are conducted.

The colorful feathers of the Huebirds are said to make a person irresistible to anyone they talk to if they collect one of each color<ref>"Apparently if you collect one feather of each color, you will be irresistible to anyone you talk to." "Sorry, what did you say? I was...distracted." ~ [[Colorful Feathers]], ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]''</ref>. Some students have made a tradition of collecting a feather from each and then confessing their feelings of love to their senior<ref>「옆 반 지은이 말이야, 모든 색의 깃털을 다 모았대!」 「와~ 대박이다! 난 아직 2색밖에 못 모았는데~!」 「오늘 선배한테 고백한대~! 그래서 응원해 주러 가려구!」 「기다려~! 나도 갈래~!」 ("The girl in the next class said she's collected feathers of every color!" "Wow, that's amazing! I've only collected two colors so far!" "She's confessing to her senior today! So I'm going to go cheer her on!" "Wait a minute! I want to go too!") ~ [[Colorful Feathers]], ''[[Rhythm Sesang: The Best Plus]]''</ref>. | |||
In [[Remix 5 (Wii)|Remix 5]] in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]'', aside from their usual appearance in their own game, a large flock of pink Huebirds serve as the audience during [[Exhibition Match]]. Several pink Huebirds can be seen flying in [[Night Walk (Wii)|Night Walk]] and in the background of [[Munchy Monk (Wii)|Munchy Monk]]. In [[Police Call]], holding down on the "WXYZ" key plays their signature "Tweet, twe-twe-tweet, tweet, squawk!". Inputting the code word {{Nihongo|BIRDS}} starts a call where a Huebird attempts to play the [[Tambourine]] with a [[Monkey#Tambourine|monkey]]. [[Tibby]]'s fall during the opening of ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'' causes a few pink Huebirds to fly away in shock. | In [[Remix 5 (Wii)|Remix 5]] in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]'', aside from their usual appearance in their own game, a large flock of pink Huebirds serve as the audience during [[Exhibition Match]].

*Their name is a pun on the "[[wikipedia:Bluebird of happiness|Bluebird of happiness]]", the symbol of a [[wikipedia:Bluebird|bluebird]] as the harbinger of happiness that is found in many cultures and may date back thousands of years. The way they are described as having "behaved the same way for generations", the irresistible effect of their feathers and the mention of the next tour being about [[The Blue Birds]] (outside of ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]'') may all be references to this. | |||
