Design

The Obelisk Island Bird looks similar in appearance to pterosaurs such as Pterodactylus, although it is covered in dark green feathers, a trait not shared with these ancient reptiles. Its head is similar in appearance to that of a shoebill bird, although it possesses a large yellow beak similar in shape to a toucan's.
