2.1 Update: New GMCM option for changing which sound you want the trinket to use: bird flute, parrot squawk, or muted.
Known Issue: the bird will squawk like a parrot again on Ginger Island. This is unavoidable without turning all parrot sounds into the bird flute sound.
Old school gamers and fans of retro gaming will recognize our favorite...duck? Summoned by the Bird Flute, it would take you anywhere you wanted to go (provided there was a waypoint close enough).
I wanted to bring our boy into Stardew! Not really a duck, not really a seagull, just a cool bird that everyone recognizes as "the Zelda duck".
This mod changes the parrot trinket icon, the hover text, and turns the parrot into the duck.
The original sprite only had four frames so I got creative and also added the following:
- Custom poses for sitting on the player's head and bobbing.
- Custom pose for squawking.
- Recolored black lines to fit more with SDV's style.

SMAPI and Content Patcher are required.
GMCM - optional but recommended.

- Download and install SMAPI and Content Patcher (and GMCM if wanted).
- Download the mod file then unzip/extract it into into your Stardew mods folder!
- Fire up the game and enjoy!
