I am easily annoyed with most birds in the books.  It's safe to say that all of the birds except for Chibb, Skarlath,  Stryk Redkite, and those in Martin the Warrior (Boldred, her family, and the Warden) are at the bottom of my favourites list.  Rabbits, too.  Don't like them much.

What about Warbeak Sparra? She makes two appearances and is pretty awesome in both.

I love the birds. Usually they're completely crazy and rather nonsensical, (rather like myself wot? Saw an opportunity to good to miss!) ;D ;D
Dreams, dreams are untapped and writhing. How much more real are dreams than that paltry existence which we now call reality? How shall we ascend to that which humanity is destined? By mastering the dreamworld of course. That is how, my pupils, that is how.

I know so many readers like them, and I can appreciate that without understanding it.  I never did like the Sparras.

Finally voted above; it wasn't an easy decision, but I voted for (or against, really) the squirrels.  I like most of the squirrels (Fwirl, Felldoh, Craklyn, Saro, Triss, Russa, Jess and Silent Sam to name a few), but some squirrels really grate on me.  That group includes the Gawtrybe and Jukka's tribe.

Jukka's tribe, wow really?

Don't like Warbeak and the Sparra nor one of the coolest squirrel tribes in the series.
We have very different opinions. Still I totally understand your view on the Gawtrybe, they were just plain annoying.

I like Jukka and Ruro.  The rest of the tribe were too simple - they were selfish animals with no ideas of right and wrong.  At least Jukka is a grey character with complexity.  I like Lady Amber, too, though I don't always agree with her ideas of justice and fairness.

Squirrels?!?! Nonsense! While I agree that Jukka's tribe and especially the Gawtrybe were terrible, they don't at all fit the general definition of squirrel. They are the very rare exception to the rule. I'd say the squirrel type is defined more in Song and Jess Squirrel. And, this also means that you commit the grave offense of having Rakkety Tam MacBurl, Doogy Plum and Armel as part of the "Least Favorite Species"... Unpardonable!

Rakkety Tam was my least favourite book... like I said, it was a tough vote to cast, but when it comes down to it, the other species in the poll came out on top.  We're talking about the least of the best.  Squirrels are not at all the worst.

*Shuns Banya's existence.* So what do people think of Jukka's Tribe? Personally, I never particularly liked them, and I never particularly disliked them. ;D ;D

She's allowed her opinion. :P

As for Jukka's tribe, I really disliked their intolerance toward nearly every other beast but themselves.

Well Banya I suppose we must agree to disagree. But none the less, I always liked Jukka's tribe, they seemed driven by honor but they really didn't want to help out. They were their own creatures and seemed more like a neutral force rather then a. "Oh Aye creatures be in trouble lets rush to help them in a battle that might kill half of us!" Type characters that all otters and badgers seem to be.
