#013 Emerid

Description

Emerids are social, friendly birds that travel long distances through deserts, trying to make friends with lonely travelers and larger animals. They've been known to sing loud songs on hot nights, with nearby emerids all singing the same song. Those that spend much time in deserts typically develop a love-hate relationship with the emerid songs that keep them company during the day, but also keep them up all night.
