Jastaal

They had wings that partially extended when they walked, lifting their bodies so that they appeared to be half-gliding along, bouncing on the wind. At some point between 2 BBY and 1 BBY,The Essential Reader's Companion dates the events of Star Wars: The Han Solo Adventures, of which Han Solo's Revenge is part, to between 1 BBY and 2 BBY. a number of Jastaal were present on the planet Bonadan at the same time that the smuggler Han Solo was there investigating an enslavement ring. After noticing them, Solo reflected that their plumage was beautiful.
