I've seen a couple of them - to me it makes quite a lot of sense. Some of them look pretty cute too.
Fursona species there should be more of, less of and none of in your opinion

I also think insect-sonas are cool when done right. They follow the same principles as a mammal, avian, reptile, or whatever 'sona.
That moth is adorable. I feel like a dragonfly sona would look badass.

There should be different breeds. Like everyone does wolves. Why not do a maned wolf instead of a grey or timber. And yes. More hyenas but not spotted. I wanna see some Aardwolf. Or different cat breeds. I've seen a lot of calico and white cats. Why not persians or American curls or instead of Bengal tigers how's about a golden tabby tiger. More rodents like a viscacha or kangaroo rat and angora rabbits. Lemurs and bears. Definitely more birds. I love birds of paradise. More reptiles. I want more turtles and alligators!
Definitely more fish and insects. I want to make a praying mantis someday. There could be a narwhal and sting rays. Different dog breeds like Yorkies and St. Bernards. I personally love dragons. MORE REALISTIC DRAGONS. And and and more hybrids. Elephant koala ftw.
But overall I agree people should do what they want even if everyone is doing the same thing.

Before I came here I was deadset on making a dragon fursuit, but only to find that there is "too many" or "not realistic enough", so I did some thinking. I thought it would be just as interesting to try and do a bird of prey, specifically a short-eared owl as I think they are adorable and I love owls. Plus they are actually located on the land that we own and are very rare in our area. So I decided that I could not only make a suit to wear, I could also probably help promote them and raise awareness. And the more and more I think of this, the more I'm comitted to it. So, in a way, I have this forum to thank for thinking of a way to help in my own little way

My favorite animal is finally getting the love it deserves. : )

more- good surrealism, moths, mantises, interesting and FURRY aliens (like stitch but your own idea), bats
less- sharks (I am getting use to them though), obvious trolls, things that aren't really anthro (like elves), ferals
I do wish I could do a more interesting animal but I really cant connect with many of them
I dont see the problem with pokemon they arent at all original characters (with the exeption of a few) they are animals, to me this is like saying dragons or chimera are unoriginal
I like combos if it lends something to the character

What would we do with avians though? Make them chicks?
Riho
Your brain cells are mine
I was sincerely expecting a humongous list of fursona species that you don't want.
Butters' fursona has actually showed me that people need to make more avians.
And more well thought-out fursonas. I don't care if it's a wolf, fox, hyena, penis monster, or what.
JUST SPEND MORE THAN THIRTY SECONDS ON YOUR FURSONA.
GIVE.
IT.
LIFE!!!!!!!! LIIIIIIIIFFFFFFEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!

I'll try to find you one then. I'm off to work in a few minutes, but I am determined to find one to your liking.

When positioned in a human-shaped face I think beaks and bills look out of place, as if they are being worn over the top in the form of a mask. When people replace the nose with a beak it is particularly odd. A human shaped forehead takes the arrangement to absurdity.
I object less to more animalistic heads, which the form of the beak slides into more naturally because that's quite literally the case in nature, but forming convincing expressions I would interpret as 'anthro' around these features without warping the beak is difficult, whilst muzzles achieve the same effortlessly without weird warping of bones.

More Fursonas that come from the realm of Victoria's Secret wearing the clothing of the people.

This, very much this.
If you're going to make an avian fursona, you have best chances of working with owls and similar birds that have small beaks and large faces.
That said, I do think many bird of prey fursonas look spot on, with the beak well incorporated into the face. Personally, all my fursonas have natural animal heads.
Alright I see what you're saying. Those definitely look awkward. The first one is creepy with that overly human eye and the overall detail.
I am willing to allow a little pliableness to the beak to allow for expressions, speech, and such. Must be tricky to get a beak just right.
Yes. What we need is every other new person on the forum to be a canine. Preferably a husky or wolf. Oh wait ...

I see you also gave a few things you like about bird anthros below too.
Now this is sorta more feral/cartoon than it is full on furry but I think that head on the top corner is one of the best avian beaks ever done. It's so expressive and you gotta love all that fluff.
This is probably more to your liking as its a bit more natural. (The right one of course)
The body of this one is more how I'd prefer non-griffon characters to appear and the beak is quite sleek imo. Although, I think my fav bird artist of all time would have to be Hoot. Just look at how cute this is!!!! x3

Why do insect furries make "No sense"? Three-quarters of all animal species on the planet are insects, afterall.
I actually think there should be more insect furries. Actually, more arthropod (insects, arachnids, crustaceans, etc.) furries in general. Insects are some of the most fascinating animals on the planet, if people actually bothered to learn about them.
