A creature from the folklore of the North American Indians of the Illinoisans. Initially, this rather peaceful bird-like creature appeared once a year on the first day of autumn at sunset. On this day, she flew over the river in search of a winter home. All this went on until she tasted human flesh. Since then, she has been attacking people.
