Notes These birds, resembling a scrub jay the size of a cassowary, are distressingly intelligent and coordinate attacks with a complicated system of calls. The first feather on each wing is reduced to only a shaft, which, in turn, is blade-like and the primary form of attack. Sword-feather birds are flightless, but can use their powerful wings to get into trees with WAIR, and frequently leap or glide from branches onto unsuspecting prey.
