The short is about an idiotic bird named Purdy who is in love with a blue cat named Fergurina and Purdy spends most of the short trying to get Fergurina's affections. Unfortunately, the way that Purdy tries to attract Fergurina is by showing off his naked backside to her and of course, this disgusts Fergurina so much that she is constantly beating up Purdy throughout the short.
So, I was actually surprised that John R. Dilworth had actually made animations throughout the early half of the 1990s, since the only animation of John R. Dilworth's that I was aware of was "Courage the Cowardly Dog." So, imagine my surprise when I discovered this hilarious short that came from the early 1990s called "The Dirdy Birdy!" "The Dirdy Birdy" was quite an unusual animated short as the whole premise of the short is about a dimwitted bird who shows his affections to a cat...by mooning her! At first, I wasn't on board with this short, due to the premise being about a bird mooning a cat. But after I watched this short, I started to fall in love with the clever humor and animation of this short! I just loved the moments where Fergurina beats up Purdy every time Purdy moons her, as the many different ways that Fergurina beats up Purdy were hilarious to watch. I also loved the crazy animation of this short as both Purdy and Fergurina display crazy feats throughout this short, like Purdy pulling out his own heart to show Fergurina or Fergurina beating up the Grim Reaper when the Grim Reaper tried to take Purdy away. Another thing that I liked about this short was the music. The soundtrack is pretty catchy and goofy to listen to, and I loved the song "The Big Laugh" by Jurgen Schlachter that plays throughout the short as it's very catchy and goofy and fits so well with the tone of this short.
The only problem that I have with this short was the gross humor. Thankfully, there isn't that much gross humor in this short. But the scenes of Purdy constantly mooning Fergurina were a bit too much for me to handle at times.
Overall, "The Dirdy Birdy" is a pretty entertaining short to watch! While I wasn't the biggest fan of the gross out humor, the humor and the crazy animation all combined to create one of the most hilarious shorts I have ever seen!
