It typically consists of a horizontal branch, ledge, or platform where the creature can alight, roost, or observe its surroundings. Perches are commonly found in natural settings such as trees, where birds can find stability, balance, and a vantage point for various activities including resting, sleeping, preening their feathers, or scanning for prey.
