Birdie is Agent 47's informant in Hitman: Absolution.

Background Edit

Birdie first appears in the mission The King of Chinatown, where he assigns a target (The King of Chinatown) for 47 to take out in exchange for certain information regarding the whereabouts of Victoria. He seems to be of Hispanic descent, and speaks with a seedy and suspicious criminal accent. After the hit is carried out, 47 meets with Birdie at his pigeon coop. He tries to persuade Birdie into digging up information on why ICA wants to find Victoria.

It was revealed in Hitman: Damnation that Birdie used to work for the Agency as an assassin and was apparently quite skilled. He is still technically an employee, but has what he describes as a "nonexclusive deal" with the ICA. He has since started trafficking arms and information instead. Though he has plenty of money, he lives in and works out of an old school bus that is rife with Birdie's pet birds, and the necessary equipment for keeping them.

Trivia Edit

Birdie is mentioned in Cosmo Faulkner's reports as a suspect of interest in Chicago PD's manhunt for 47. Faulkner's blog also mentions that Birdie has a friend named "Lenny", who might be Lenny Dexter.
His nickname derives from his association with, and love for birds. It could also be a not-so-subtle reference to his role as a criminal informer.
In the Behind The Scenes Interview video of Powers Boothe and Shannyn Sossamon, the cutscene at the end shows Jade receiving a call from Birdie. He apparently betrays 47 by informing the ICA of his whereabouts at Hope, South Dakota. It is unknown at this time if Birdie genuinely sells 47 out to the Agency, or if it's all a part of 47's plans.
In Hitman: Sniper Challenge, Birdie will show up on the rooftop of Richard Strong Jr.'s penthouse when all 5 Pigeons in the level are killed.
