The nokka is a rather large bird with metallic feathers, several rows of teeth, and an excellent sense of smell. They are fast, and use their tail feathers to spear lunch. They tend to fly in flocks and are very difficult to kill. That said, they also tend to avoid wooded areas, and they can only fly so low. If you are unfortunate enough to come into close proximity with one, stop, drop, and freeze.
Humans are not their only source of food, however. They are omnivorous, and while most nuts and seeds are too small for them, they do enjoy walnuts as well as apples and other large hanging fruit.
The one useful aspect of the nokka is their tail feathers. They can be used to fletch an arrow, and will make the arrow fly straight and true.
