⸙ Subjunctive mood is used for hypothetical / imaginary scenarios.

✰ The above sentence is in "Subjunctive Mood" beginning with the "if" - clause.

✰ The "were” is used to express subjunctive mood.

✰ The sentence is imaginary because I am not a bird.

❀ We use "were" after "I" in cases where we use wish. Example are those sentences beginning with -"If" and "as if"/"as though".

• ๛ If I were rich, I would travel around the world.

❀ Here, the "were" symbolises unreality or imagination.
