I know its on the roadmap, but I really hope they go all out when they do add them.
Seeing flocks of birds flying in a V formation across the sky, migrating for winter. Hearing mourning dove's in the morning, and owls at night. Ducks and geese skimming across the water. Woodpeckers pecking in the woods. It could give a lot of variety to the auditory experience of different biomes.

Overall, it would massively improve the sense of life in the world. Honestly, now that I think about it, this might be one of my biggest wants from the game. Just for the sheer amount of ambiance and immersion it could offer.
Now imagine if you could tame and train carrier pigeons to send mail across a server lol

I've said it mulitple times that avian fauna and a rework of trees need to be priorities in development to make the game world feel more immersive and alive.
Crows cawing in fall, birds chirping in spring, owls hooting at night, cuckoos and woodpeckers in foresty areas and ducks around lakes/ponds = these would contribute TREMENDOUSLY to the feeling of a living, breathing ecosystem of a world.

I think the biggest problem is actually making them fly, because If I'm correct I don't think the engine can handle that at all yet.

I'd like an upgrade to caves first.  Some ambient noise, like echoes of water dripping into pools and some cave insects (spiders, crickets, etc) would also be nice.  Lastly, let us harvest the bioluminescent vines we see, dadgummit!
