'''Jibberjays''' are a species of avian creature in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. They are multicolored birds that primarily appear in orange coloration but can also be black, green, yellow, red, and cyan. Their name comes from the term "jibber-jabber," meaning "a lot of spoken nonsense," and "{{wp|jay}}," a kind of bird, although their bright plumage and their habit of repeating words are more akin to parrots than jays. Jibberjays appear in two [[Galaxy|galaxies]] in the game: the [[Wild Glide Galaxy]] and [[Fleet Glide Galaxy]].

'''Jibberjays''' are bird-like creatures that make their appearance in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. They are multi-colored birds that come in primarily orange coloration, but can also be black, green, yellow, and red. They appear in the [[Wild Glide Galaxy]] as NPCs who give information to [[Mario]] as to how to control [[Fluzzard]]. After earning the 43rd star in [[Beat Block Galaxy]], they will send a letter to Mario, challenging him to a race against their colorful species. They are later seen in [[Fleet Glide Galaxy]].
Two Jibberjays appear in the Wild Glide Galaxy's [[Fluzzard's First Flight|first mission]], where one teaches [[Fluzzard gliding]] to [[Mario]] and later on sends him through a course while he is being carried by [[Fluzzard]]. If Mario completes the course, the Jibberjay will give him a [[Power Star]]. The same happens later on in the Fleet Glide Galaxy. Later on in the Wild Glide Galaxy, after Mario completes [[Step to the Beep]] in [[Beat Block Galaxy]], a [[Black Jibberjay]] sends him a [[letter]] requesting a race. The Black Jibberjay then races Mario and Fluzzard along with four of his Jibberjay followers.


Later on, after Mario completes the [[Jungle Fluzzard Race|second mission]] of the Wild Glide Galaxy and beats four Jibberjays in a race, one Jibberjay returns with Mario to [[Starship Mario]] and gives him advice on how to control Fluzzard whenever spoken to.
