Fokkeru

Fokkeru is the Japanese name for an otherwise unnamed birdlike enemy in The Adventure of Link (elsewhere unofficially referred to as "Fotail"). In the game art, however, it looks more like an insectoid alien.

These birdlike foes only appear in the Great Palace and hop up and down while moving back and forth, spewing fireballs in an upward arc such that they land on the ground and then continue to move a short distance, hoping to impede Link's progress.

Their name and sprite share similarities with the Fokka from the same game.

Trivia

 * The name "Fokkeru" may have been inspired by the Dutch/German word "vogel", which means "bird". Specifically, the German pronunciation is what seems to be the basis.
