'''Blewbirds''' are enemies that appear in ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]''. They are blue bird-like creatures with black shells that shoot red, beak-like arrows in the direction they are facing. When this arrow hits a wall, it extends into a horizontal pole that the player is able to walk on or grab onto. When this enemy is defeated, another one will burrow up to take its place. It is similar to [[Birdo]], as it is a bird-like creature that shoots obstacles from its mouth. They prominently appear in the level [[Blewbird Roost]]. Their English name comes from "blew" and "{{wp|bluebird}}".<ref>[https://topics.nintendo.co.jp/article/3c24e9ec-6583-401a-a5ab-818180c2c0a8 マリオたちの行く手を阻む。フラワー王国の個性豊かな敵キャラクターをご紹介。~その2~【ワンダーの世界へ Vol.14】].
