The Rise of the Golden Idol Feathered Frenzy birds puzzle is one of the most memorable moments in the campaign.

Morag Aviary's Guide to Birds

The Feathered Frenzy puzzle in The Rise of the Golden Idol has most of its clues written on a handbook called Morag Aviary's Guide to Birds. There's just one problem: All the pages have been torn to shreds.

Bleary-Eyed Flower-Piercer - Reacts aggressively to bright colors; avoid bringing anything neon.Red-Breasted Heron - Has bright plumage and extremely sharp teeth.Masked Grouse - Bug-eyed and yellow-footed; extremely territorial; hides its eggs in bushes.Deathrattle Lory - Has colored feathers; mimics sounds; silence is advised as speaking causes these birds to scream.Nythalic's Herald - Terrifying creature; loud noises will provoke them.
