" 'Those are Vosk gulls,' said Kamchak, 'In the spring, when the ice breaks in the Vosk, they fly north.' .... 'The first sounthern migrations of meadow kites,' he said, 'have already taken place. The migrations of the forest hurlit and the horned gim do not take place until later in the spring. This is the time that the Vosk gulls fly. " Book 4, Nomads of Gor, pages 137 - 138 ~才

Zadit

"The zadit is a small, tawny-feathered, sharp-billed bird. It feeds on insects. When sand flies and other insects, emergent after rains, infest kaiila, they frequently light on the animals, and remain for some hours, hunting insects. This relieves the kaiila of the insects but leaves it with numerous small wounds, which are unpleasant and irritating, where the bird had dug insects out of its hide. These tiny wounds, if they become infected, turn into sores; these sores are treated by the drovers with poultices of kaiila dung." Book 10, Tribesmen of Gor, page 152 ~才

Ushindi Fisher

"...His head was surmounted by an elaborate headdress, formed largely from the long, white, curling feathers of the Ushindi fisher, a long legged, wading bird. It was not unlike the common headdress of the askari. Indeed, save for the length of the feathers and the intricate leather and beading, in which the efathers were mounted, it might have been such a headdress." Book 13, Explorers of Gor, page 236 ~才

--In The Jungles of Schendi-- "In the level of the emergents there live primarily birds, in particular parrots, long-billed fleers, and needle-tailed lits. In the second level, that of the canopies, is found an incredible variety of birds, warblers, finches, mindars, the crested lit and the common lit, the fruit tindel, the yellow gim, tanagers, some varieties of parrot, and many more. In the lower portion of the canopies, too can be found heavier birds, such as the ivory billed woodpecker and the umbrella bird. .... In the ground zone, and on the ground itself, are certain birds, some flighted, like the hook-billed gort, which preys largely on rodents, such as ground urts, and insectivorous whistling finch, and some unflighted, like the grub borer and lang gim. Along the river, of course, many other species of birds may be found, such as jungle gants, tufted fishers and ring-necked and yellow-legged waders." Book 13, Explorers of Gor, pages 311 - 312 ~才
