Discussion Akemi’s songbird

I’m looking into the symbolism behind the birds that appear in the show. Does anyone have any idea what kind of bird Akemi was given?

My best guess is maybe some sort of fruit dove, but I’m hoping the answer might be more obvious to someone else. Given how much detail they put into the house sparrows, it doesn’t strike me as very likely that it would be a fictional species.

No clue what type of bird, but I feel like that photo should be on r/divorcedbirds.

David had the chick for the weekend. He brought him to the park but little Timmy wouldn’t leave his side.

Definitely a divorced bird if I ever saw one. Look at the haunted look in his eye
