Birdo is a strange creature that first appeared in Doki Doki Panic (AKA Super Mario Bros. 2). According to the instruction manual, he is a boy that likes to be called Birdetta. However, in the credits, Birdo is shown as Ostro, which is another type of enemy and is nothing to do with Birdo.

In later games, Birdo has been female (rather than a male who wishes to be female), and also seems to have become Yoshi's girlfriend in some games, proving that Birdo is definitely female.

In Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, Birdo eventually replaced Bowser as Popple's "rookie". She seems to have fallen in love with Popple.

In Japan, she is more widely known as Catherine, which was accidentally leftover in the Wario's Woods English manual.

Birdo's first sports game she appeared in was Mario Tennis, however she did not appear in the more recent Mario Power Tennis. In Mario Superstar Baseball Birdo specializes in batting. She is a balanced character. She also appears in Super Mario Strikers, but is not available as a captain, but as a a filler to complete the team. Birdo is in Mario Kart Double Dash as Yoshi's default partner. Birdo was unlockable in Mario Party 7 when you buy her with 1000 mileage points from the Duty Free shop. She shares the same orb as Yoshi, the egg orb, which allows you to take other other orbs as you pass them.
