As in, do the birds return home without travel time? I feel like it shouldn't be that way but both birds I recalled were available for use only seconds after I hit the button.

I like the idea of permanence of the birds, that when you send a bird out it's out and it has to take time to come back.

FWIW I prefer auto recall off.

It's the dead of winter on a snowy island and I'm going to die of thirst!
