Bennu bird (SciiFii)

The bennu bird (Bennutornis aegyptiacus) is a species of passerine bird, despite its appearance, that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the wetlands, riverbanks, and oasises of North Africa to help boost biodiversity. The bennu bird is mistaken for herons, storks, and cranes, due to its size and appearance, which simulates convergent evolution. Male bennu birds have two long antenna-like feather crest, which are used to attract the females during the breeding seasons. The bennu bird's colors are grayish blue on the back, the yellow in the belly and white in the knees and into the tail, and the black-and-white line on the eye near the eyes which is never the black color on eyes. The colors on the wings range from blue, grayish jean colored, to white with black gradient in the lower. Each of the wings are more similar to those of the heron than a wagtail. The tail feathers are white-and-black in color and is fan-shaped. The beak of the bennu bird is very long, but smaller than pelican's beak, and is dandelion-colored. The fleshy parts on the beak are yellowish peach. The long, yellow legs are very sturdy with gray claws, which are sharper than a medieval sword. The bennu bird reaches 1.5 meters tall in height, 1.2 meters in length, 350 centimeters length per wingspan, and weighs about 50 - 60 kilograms on average, making it one of the largest known songbird species. The bennu bird is carnivorous and feed primarily on any kinds of insects, spiders, scorpions, fish, frogs, lizards, snakes, smaller birds, and small mammals. The bennu birds are nomadic in nature to find their mates and to find food. The bennu birds are social and often join other members of the same species, and the species can flock together to form groups that are often shapped like a letter "X", if the leader is in the center with babies riding on the leader to avoid potential predators. The conservation status of the bennu bird is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts and the bennu bird's wide range.
