Falconry is a thing, but I wouldn’t necessarily consider them model companion birds.
Many birds do bond with us, though they might not be recommended companions due to complications of care. But birds that have sufficient similarity, mutual understanding and alignment of values to form a team likely includes but is not limited to crows, parrots, and pigeons. Pigeons, of course, have been livestock, but also messengers and pets. Many more kinds of birds have social inclinations that may cause them to interpret a human as a flock member, friend, parent, or someone to fall in love with (even if we don’t have any specific shared goals to team up on).
