Tronds

Some birds call these islands their home. They soar easily on the strong winds and fold their wings tight to their body for maximum aerodynamics, to quickly move downwards and/or against the wind. They make their homes on the high cliffs on the shores, and some inside or on the crooked trees. They have a strong grip on their feet as to be able to catch falling eggs or to hold the nest steady when building.
