Keen Hearing and Sight. The Ancient Potoo has advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on hearing or sight.
Camouflage. When the Ancient Potoo stays still for thirty seconds it becomes visually indistinguishable from its surroundings by means of a natural, non-magical camouflage. This effect can be maintained until the Ancient Potoo moves again.

Description
The Ancient Potoo are much larger and deadlier than their smaller Great Potoo and Potoo families. They reach up to 10ft in height and can have up to a 15ft wingspan, over five times the size of the Great Potoo. Having been alive for such an extreme time their evolution have allowed them to develop a perfect camouflage, letting them blend in perfectly to almost all non-man-made areas as long as they stay still. Their feathers are heavy and sharpened, allowing them to shoot them off at their prey to skewer their foes. These birds are said to be around one-hundred years old as a majority, though there have been records of these birds living for almost five-hundred years. They reside within mountains and forests primarily.
