Few thoughts.
Slime - It's spin attack doesn't appear to do anything new. It seems to spin at roughly the same distance and speed as the ice slimes charge. It isn't immune or doesn't take reduced damage while in spin more, and... I may be wrong, but it only spins in cardinal directions?
This slime would stand out more if it's spin attack targeted where a character was, spun to that spot and only stopped spinning when it reached that spot, not changing it's course even if the player moves. Taking significantly reduced damage when in spin mode, too, making it only truly vulnerable between spins. It needs... something more than being mostly an ice slime, but that's just looking at a single image.
Bird - A bee that generates more bees is already one of the most annoying boss battles in the game, not necessarily difficult but tedious. Please don't go that route, especially since players are unlikely to get anything for killing the spawned foes.
An idea could be to have an assortment of eggs laid, with the type of egg laid hinted at by the pattern of five dots on the egg.
X formation: Upon hatching, explodes fire in the surrounding intercardinal directions. Bomberman-style.
+ formation: As above, but in the four cardinal directions.
^ formation: Bursts into a goopy yellow mess that gives any monster that moves through it a significant amount of buffs.
v formation: Bursts into a goopy white mess that reduces the stats of characters who walk through it for a while. Ewwww.
? formation: Bursts out a random plant monster. I guess it's been eating some exotic seeds.
Star-shaped formation: 1% chance of being laid, only on the first egg each bird lays. Hatches into a golden egg item if not broken. sell for a tidy profit.
