No bird soars too high if he soars with his own wings
Nico accepted the wine bottle and joined Sirius by the windowsill. You'd be surprised by how many British owls hunt by day actually! Two out of the five native species... A beat. With such a dense magical population here though, um, probably there'll be a lot of owls. And maybe bats. You see bats around a lot, bats are quite exciting. Nico was well aware that his fascination for airborn animals, specifically birds, was not a universally held interest (although he couldn't realy understand why) and sometimes the last thing people wanted to hear was a rant about the impact of invasive owl species introduced by wizardkind.
He took an amply swig of wine and then offered it back to Sirius. He didn't have a huge amount of experience with alcohol but he was starting to suspect his bird talk could get out of hand under the influence, although not always, if someone distracted him early enough it might be safe. Did you know there are currently no quidditch teams that use 'owl' in the name? In Britain, that is. In his attempt to diverge into quidditch he'd accidentally dragged birds right back into it.
