'''Skeleton Birds''' are enemies in ''[[Wario Land 4]]''. As their name implies, Skeleton Birds are flying skeletal birds, and they wear a green hood and a red bandanna. Skeleton Birds attack by spitting green clumps of goo, which do not actually hurt Wario, but turn him into [[Zombie Wario]]. While Wario is a zombie, he can attack Skeleton Birds; after hitting them once, they will crumble into a head which Zombie Wario or normal Wario can defeat. Skeleton Birds appear in two levels: [[Sapphire Passage]] and [[Golden Passage]]. Additionally, in the ending cutscene, a Skeleton Bird appears with two [[Men'ono]]s in one of Wario's [[Gallery:Wario Land 4#Flashbacks|flashbacks]].
