Wingo Based off of a Crow?

I don't believe the article that much when it says Wingo might be based off of a crow. She could be based off of a raven, as they are black and they love shiny things. Also, ravens are known to cause trouble, most notably in the famous poem "The Raven" by Edgar Allen Poe. Do any of you guys believe me? Madz the Penguin (talk) 00:52, 16 November 2014 (EST)

Crows and ravens are VERY similar creatures. The only difference between the two in reality is that ravens are larger (the common raven has a wedge-shaped tail compared to the american crow's fan-shaped tail too). The "loving shiny things" bit is actually just folklore; crows and ravens don't love shiny objects any more than any other object that may catch their attention. Ravens may be mischievous, but same with crows; they're both highly intelligent animals though. BabyLuigiFire.pngRay Trace(T|C) 01:04, 16 November 2014 (EST)
I thought we just said that crows don't like shiny objects. Ravens and crows are equally depicted to cause trouble. You can say that Wingo is based on a raven, but not anymore than a crow. Ravens, as Baby Luigi said, are very similar to crows, but they have a much thicker beak, a fuller throat, are much bigger, and they have a wedge-shaped tail in flight. Finally, you can say that Wingo is like a rook, jackdaw, blackbird, grackle, or even a starling (the last three aren't even related to crows; they're blackbirds, and in the starling's case, their own family). The point is, don't get very nitpicky about what exactly what kind of bird Wingo is. Funny thing you're learning about corvids in a Mario Wiki! Icon showing how many lives Mario has left.

Oh, okay. I'm not the expert on birds (Walkazo is), so I got mixed up. Also, about the larger thing, Wingo is huge! I haven't seen a large Mario bird since the Zeekeeper! Ummm, anyway, thanks for the info! This reminds me of how I wrote a poem called, "The Birdley" on Fanfiction. It's a spoof of The Raven, and it has Blumiere as the main character, Timpani as Lenore, and Birdley as...well, you get the picture. Quoth the Birdley, "Nevermore!"

No, I mean get some images on this article I don't care how. Toadbrigade5 (talk) 22:43, 30 November 2014 (EST)
I added a good image of Wingo before the boss battle with him/her. That picture kind of makes me want to play the game just so I can see this bird. (I haven't found a good bird like that since either the Zeekeeper or Birdley) Madz the Penguin (talk) 23:46, 30 November 2014 (EST)
