Description
A Chickcharney looks like a 3ft tall owl, but with 3 toes, two slender arms with 3 fingers, and a prehensile tail like an opossum's. At first glance it looks hideous, but those who give it a second glance will see a curious, mild being, a guardian of island forests.
The Chickcharney's nest is found where two or more pine trees meet at the top. It is nearly impossible to spot, and likely won't be there next time you pass by.
