What's the spookiest bird in the world, /an/? I think it's

Why is it spooky?

Clearly you've never seen a bearded vulture. You want spooks, try having one of those big bastards look you in the eye. They know you harbor a delicious skeleton in you, they know, and they're just waiting for you to die so they can get at that sweet, sweet marrow.

they're spooky in the sense that they look like actual hell demons, which might be true since all they eat is fucking bones

I reavaluated my opinion of chickens when one morning I opened their coop and found the mangled remains of a weasel in there.
They're like mini dinosaurs.

One of my family's chickens, a little bantam hen, ate a live snake once.

Loons. They make spooky sounds.

And they make the most horrible noise to come out of pretty much any non-cockatoo bird.

We had a tiny bantam rooster who normally acted like a cute little doofus.

He murdered a possum and caved in its skull.

There's a reason why native Americans think they predict death, Lovecraft and many other horror writers mentioned them in their works, and Bosch drew their European relatives as literal demons in Hell devouring the souls of the damned.

>"It is vowed that the birds are psychopomps lying in wait for the souls of the dying, and that they time their eerie cries in unison with the sufferer's struggling breath If they can catch the fleeing soul when it leaves the body, they instantly flutter away chittering in daemonic laughter; but if they fail, they subside gradually into a disappointed silence."-The Dunwich HorrorbyHoward Phillips Lovecraft
