🌊Shanhai jing 11: Suan-yu, a snake-like bird with four wings, three legs and six eyes. aka the panic bringer. I’m not sure we can regard them as a bird, but ancient Chinese people did at least.

🌊Shanhai jing 10: Ying-shao. A white magpie with red eyes, red beak, and a ladle-like tail. I have no idea how to make a cool ladle tail design… what a hard challenge.

🌊Shanhai jing 7: Fei-yi. The original description sounds like just a normal quail… Maybe kinda wood partridges, I suppose? Their meat was used as a vermifuge.

8羽め:蛮蛮(Man-man)。漢字文化圏ではおなじみ「比翼の鳥」の一種で、雌雄それぞれ一個ずつの目と翼しか持たず、つがいになると飛ぶ。洪水の予兆となるという不穏な設定あり。「鳧」に似ているとされている。平凡社ライブラリー版では「鳧」は「かも」とルビが振られているのだが、この漢字は「けり」(こっちはチドリ科)とも読む。本家の挿絵では足や嘴の形がケリに近いので私はそちらを採用しました。左のちょっと地味っぽいのがメスのつもり。

🌊Shanhai jing 8: Man-man. One-eyed, one-winged ducks. They need a partner to fly. When they appear, floods will strike the country.

🌊Shanhai jing 4: Shang-fu. A six-eyed, three-headed, six-legged, three-winged chicken. You don’t need sleep anymore once you eat their meat.

🌊Shanhai jing 2: Qu-ru. The ancient manuscript says they are a duck with a human face, while they are depicted as a three-headed pheasant in the 17c. So, I did both.🦆
