I vote bearded vulture, but this one is definitely second. Their eyes are kind of terrifying for some reason.

Amazing ! Just amazing ! A glimpse into the past ! and the 'killer' stare, mesmerising !

[@RinakuXx]

Fun fact: Nintendo based their loftwing, from The legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, off this bird.

[@Gakupo1Kamui]

holy shit i knew it reminded me of something

[@NitroNinja324]

@Magnezone I was leaning more towards Golduck.

[@NitroNinja324]

@Magnezone Does it? Golduck is blue, shoebills are blue, nuff said. Skarmory is.....what? Metal?

[@NitroNinja324]

@Magnezone Funny joke. I still see no resemblence.

[@NitroNinja324]

@Magnezone That's nice and all, but I still don't see the resemblence. Skarmory is too sleek.

Strictly speaking that was a bill rattle (like storks and albatrosses do), it's not produced by the syrix.

[@beastwarsFTW]

I think of the Predator.

[@sixxmesixx]

One of the most metal creatures period! I imagined them with a Motley Crue shirt on! So cute you just wanna hug them. ❤

I cannot believe I'm 35 and never knew these existed they should have one in every zoo hands down one of the coolest avians, it looks 100% prehistoric I could see one that's like 6ft tall fighting an alligator for food lol

[@sapphirejade5029]

Little video game art fact: Shoebills inspired the artists from Nintendo to create the Loftwing for "The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword" (2009, Wii console). Hope these real life Loftwings don't go extinct. These birds are majestic.🥺
