Cerulean skycatchers were a type of blue bird with a plucky nature found on the planet Akiva.[1] In 4 ABY,[2] on a quiet morning after rain, a pair of cerulean skycatchers ducked and dived through the air above the home of the couple Esmelle and Shirene in the Akivan city Myrra while the New Republic pilot Norra Wexley sat on the building's rooftop. Wexley felt the two birds chasing each other could have been taking part in a territorial dog-fight, a mating dance, or both given the creatures' nature.[1]
Behind the scenes
Cerulean skycatchers appeared in the 2015 novel Aftermath, which was written by Chuck Wendig as the first installment in Star Wars: The Aftermath Trilogy.[1]
