Stilts (enemy)

Stilts are birds that appear in the game Donkey Kong Country Returns. They are turkey-like enemies with white and yellow plumage that usually appear walking over a pair of reeds like stilts and are only present in the Ruins area. Stilts are vulnerable to roll attacks and can be jumped on. After this, the enemy loses the stilts and remains without feathers while it runs about in a frantic pace. The Kongs must hit the bird again to defeat it. Stilts rarely appear in this state as well. Additionally, they can be instantly defeated by throwing a barrel at them.
