The lantern birds were large flying creatures with incandescent tail feathers. They lived in shimmering nests high in the trees of Endor's forest moon. The lantern birds' tail feathers were used by Ewoks for medicinal potions. These avians were often eaten by Duloks, but the Ewoks considered them to be magical.
