Yellow bird

The yellow bird, possibly a canary, is a bird that will sit and chirp on the Bulletin Board when one or more new messages have been posted. First appearing in and returning in, the yellow bird has no official name or gender. Normal villagers will sometimes mention the bird in conversations. When the player starts the game, a bird can be heard chirping if their house is close enough to the Town Hall. This bird is not a villager and is a lot smaller than one.

When the player approaches the Bulletin Board, the bird will fly away, and cannot be caught in any net, whether it be normal, silver, or golden. The bird can be seen on the cover of City Folk on the sign with a four-leaf clover in its mouth.
