A tiny sculpture of a solitary grouse in a field. The grouse menaces with spikes. The overall composition is realistic. This work represents terror. This representation relates to a Greater-Sage Grouse attacking the colony on 6th of Decembary, 5210.

This is great, did you write it or was it pulled from an actual Rimworld piece?
It's off the top of the dome! And clearly a dorf thought smacked me part way through.....
The part with "menaces with spikes" sounds more like Dwarf Fortress
It was inevitable
Now imagine what dinosaurs looked like.
Sometimes the bird-dinosaur connection is easier to see. Imagine this thing standing 20 feet tall.
Sorry Brennan. We were looking for Greater Sage Grouse...
This is -exactly- what I thought of, seeing this picture. As a side note, there's a family of Roseate Spoonbills that live near me, and everytime I pass them, I think "This is a good bird to know." They're really quite pretty.
Needs HP bar
Second HP bar is when it unfurls its head and wings
So group encounter?
You made me drop my phone rofl!
Metal
Looks like a Hollow Knight boss... actually, the "Battle Grouse" SOUNDS like a Hollow Knight boss... you sure this isn't a teaser for Silksong?
What chickens look like in game of thrones
This thing is an arsehole to beat in Elden Ring.
Cleavage bird.
Just woke up from a dream where I was gonna eat out Julia from The Magicians but woke up in a snap because the taste was like dog tongue.
Maybe this thing here is ugly but it tastes good.
Yes I immediately go for my phone when I wake up.
Sword of Thrones Boid.
Skesis
This bird definitely listens exclusively to metal bands from Nordic regions featuring an opera singer dressed like an ice queen backed by instruments that sound like they just got dragged through a tar pit
