The genus is named Saurona, as marks on the insect's wings look like the all-seeing eye in Tolkien's books.

Was Pallando always meant to be a Blue Wizard?

Well, early concept art for the Acolytes shows their costumes adorned with blue feathers, mirroring the costumes of the masked Gaudrim of Rhûn.

It was a really rough weekend/Mon so stretching #TolkienTrewsday 's cameo prompt to comfort doodle.
My version of Erestor,when he needs a break from books/scrolls/ on his eyes, he dances. Incorporates it into his fighting style, making it stand out. What made Glorfindel first acknowledge him.
