Couthawk

A Couthawk or "corpse buzzard" is a species of predatory bird that lives in the Black Hills Terrritories and the Kingdom of Narik. Being a type of scavenger bird, they eat carrion. They typically surround battlefields to feed off corpses of those slain in battle, they are easily noticible by their large size and bright red colors and exotic crown feathers. Couthawks usually roost with large groups of other Couthawks and nest in caves, hollowed out trees or in small thickets. Couthawks are often territorial against those not of the same species and often use their anal scent glands to spray would be predators who get to close.
