Part 2. I Forgot To Mention Rusephine And Her Pet. Her Pet Is A Bird That Uses Toxins To Defend Themselves From Predators. These Birds Are The Pitohui, The Blue-Capped Ifrit (Ifrita Kowaldi), Also Known As The Blue-Capped Ifrita, And The Little Shrikethrush. They Are Poisonous Because They Usually Sequester Poisons From Animals And Plants That They Feed On, Commonly From Poisonous Insects. Or She Could Have An African Hawk-Eagle, A Grey Parrot, A Peacock, Or A Peregrine Falcon, For A Pet. Okay?

The toxic bird sounds about right. After all, her own feathers can paralyze her opponents on contact. So, yeah, I agree with it.

Inktober day 3, “Poison”

The blue-capped ifrit (Ifrita kowaldi) is one of only three known birds to be poisonous, which comes from their diet, which includes beetles in the genus  Choresine. Contact with their skin or feathers causes numbness and tingling.
