Premise
editBirdie friends Do, Re and Mi live in the musical world of Beebopsburgh, an island where instruments grow in the Falsetto Forest and a giant Music Mountain towers above all their adventures.
Characters
edit- Do is a green owl. He has purple eyes and wears thick red glasses and a red and yellow hat with a yellow note on it. He has orange stubby legs and a big yellow beak. Do, the owl, is the inventor of the trio, chock full of information about science things and bird things and nature things and social things. Do never forgets a detail. Do's not a coordinated little owl, and could use some extra flying practice (particularly those landings). Do has confidence that one day the landing will stick, but is often held back by fear. Fortunately, Do's friends are always there to help any way they can. Where Mi forges ahead, Do will hesitate. Do likes to think about things before doing them. Do tends to be afraid of things - the dark, new places, new people, failure, etc. in contrast to Re and Mi who are fearless. Do is very determined when it comes to learning how to fly. He eventually learns how to in Flight School and Flap Your Own Way.
- Re is a pink hummingbird. She has blue-green eyes, white freckles on her face and a note mark on the left side of her face. She has rainbow colored legs and orange feet and wears a blue bowtie on her head. Re likes things to be organized and structured, which is almost impossible on a rollicking adventure with Mi, but Re tries. Re seeks the spotlight but, being so small, feels overlooked. Re loves to sing, loves to make raspberry cupcakes and play the tambourine.
- Mi is a blue and white bird. She has blue eyes, orange legs and an orange beak. She has slicked back blue hair and also has a black note marked on her torso. Mi, the blue jay songbird, has a big personality, and is always up for an adventure. Just like a preschooler, does not know how hold back, which makes Mi irresistible. Everyone wants to go where Mi is going because they know that's where the excitement and fun is going to be. Mi likes to lead and is supportive of Re and Do to get things going. Mi loves to play guitar and rock out.

Seymore is an eager bird who wants to do the things that Do, Re and Mi do, like dancing and treasure hunting. However, he becomes upset if he feels like he is being left out or unable to follow Do, Re and Mi's steps. He's also very clumsy and constantly bumps into Do Re and Mi while dancing. Seymore often repeats words three times because he is a parrot.
- Juan Peacock is a tall purple peacock who wears a brown, yellow and red sombrero. He also wears a red bandana, has green eyes and long orange legs. Juan thinks highly of himself. He believes he's good at many things, like playing guitar and being a peacock, but he quickly gives up on things he's not good at, like Birdie Ball. He will try his best when encouraged by Do, Re and Mi. He is very attached to Pequena to the point where he will make others do things that remind him of Pequena, like making Do, Re and Mi ride in his hat, which Pequena does all the time. He is best friends with Pequena.
- Pequena is a small yellow, green, and red bird. She has blue eyes. Pequena is a very quiet and soft bird. She often gets shy when she is around Flora leading to awkward conversations.
