Birds and Hawks are cannon and here is a link to the page on the Lotr wiki: Link

Bird Nests:

-Could be placed like a plate and would be like a half slab and in the middle could be placed eggs the birds nest is craftable by putting wheat in a formation of a bowl. There are two types of nests one that you can make and one you find in the overworld that you cannot pick up. TYhe one you can make will allow you to tame a bird while the other you can not obtain through survival.

-The non obtainable one would be found throughout any region where birds spawn and birds would spawn near the nest.

-Birds will flock to the nest if placed in creative and over time an egg will form then a baby bird, eggs can be picked up but birds will become hostile if they are within 5 blocks of you when you take it.

-Different egg colors for different birds.

-If you pick up an egg you can either raise it yourself or use it for food. Raising it yourself will give you a tamable bird companion which will follow you and can deal a half a heart of damage to enemies. Also the birds would be able to sit like wolves and could be able to follow by right clicking them.

-The way to raise the egg is by placing it in the craftable nest and over time the egg will hatch and when it does you can tame it with seeds and grow it with seeds.

-Hawks would just a little bigger version of a bird and they would spawn in mountaineous regions each would have different looks. Tamed by feeding them meat and once tamed will act the same as a wolve as well but would do a heart of damage instead of half a heart.

-The Hawks and Birds that are tamed can be put in mobile cages and set free when you wish to follow you. The cage would be an inventory item and a placeable item.

-You can make a Bird whistle which will call your companion to your side in your time of need. The whistle would be crafted by any type of wood and act like a pipe.

-Hawk armor would be crafted with 4 iron ingots in a pattern of a hoe. The armor would be based off the factions crafting table. With the armor on the Hawk the hawk would now have two armor bars and the armor would give it a metal beak allowing it to do 2 and a half hearts of damage as well.

-Hawks and birds can be tamed by both good and evil players.
