My personal theory is that something ... happened ... to humanity (hence why our lone human protagonist is a hunter-gatherer who lives in a cave, albeit a suspiciously well-furnished one with a working doorbell but SHHH.) Bird-sized birds just sort of took over the vacated ruins and tried to fit into human civilization as though they were humans (hence St. Pigeonation's desks and their suspicious inclination toward running-based sporting events that specifically disallow flight, even though a lot of birds get injured in the hurdles) and basically the whole thing is exactly as awkward for everyone as we've been joking that it would be.
Questions like those raised in those comics I just linked, Pidgeworth playing the piano, how (and why) Guilty Gear Bird operates a human-sized scooter instead of just flying, how Ryouta is the one doing all the work in the three-legged race, etc. all fall under "because the mental image is hilarious, now shush."
