Skarakeet

Skarakeets, sometimes spelled Scarakeets, are a non-sentient species of bird in the the Spiral. They occur naturally in both Skull Island and Monquista and are sometimes kept as pets by pirates. Skarakeets typically congregate in large groups to roost in caves, but can also be found lingering in towns and encampments. Wild Skarakeets are aggressive and known to swarm and attack ships that approach them in the skyway. Their presence in the skyway is sometimes believed to kick up dust and aggravate allergies, leading some to consider them pests.
Skarakeets come in a wide variety of plumage colors. Their vibrant feathers are sought after to make quills and as a medicinal ingredient. Their talons are sometimes used in construction as a substitute for nails.
==Trivia==
*"Skarakeet" is a portmanteau of "scare" and "parakeet", alluding to the birds' violent nature.
