Definitely Snow White.She sang to the forest creatures…. And she was usually surrounded by bluebirds…. when I was a little girl I wanted to be followed by bluebirds like Snow White.
Later, Cinderella sings with birds and mice…but by then, they were a bit more anthropomorphic…more like … well… like Disney cartoon birds.
I have a (now banned) copy of Disney’s Song of the South where real people sing with flocks of cartoon bluebirds and it’s wonderful. I recall seeing it in a theater when I was a small child.

I’m pretty sure Sleeping Beauty did that, too. You know, before she took a nap.

Are you saying Disney cartoons are for the birds? (j/k)

Even Disney had fun with the “singing with creatures,” mocking it mercilessly in the under-appreciated “Enchanted.”

Who Framed Roger Rabbit twitted twittering pretty well, too.

Our cat is always bugging me to put bird and squirrel food in what she calls our “traps”.

The birds would be “self-help cat food” if she doesn’t get that bird feeder up off the ground.
