Screeching bird

History
The Screaming Bird has mottled gray and whitish feathers that appear to be puffed up all around its body. The white feathers are on the tips of its wings and cheeks. Its eyes and beak are almost hidden by its pudgy face; the eyes especially appear beady and dark beneath its head feathers. Its beak is very tiny when closed; when open, it can spread very wide to emit a loud shriek that sounds like a woman screaming. The Screaming Bird can be found in the swamp in which the Foggy Swamp Tribe is located.

Connection
The bird does not really have any real world connections beyond its appearance as a bird, although its terrifying shriek may have been inspired by the call of the real-life Spot-bellied Eagle-owl.
