Description: Resembles an alien cross between a humboldt squid and a penguin. They have a striking blue pattern and are up to 6ft long with a 9ft wingspan. Their wings are membranous with thin fibres stretching through allowing adjustments of the feather like tips. They armed with a razor sharp beak and tentacle like limbs. Each limb ends in 2 clawed prongs which it uses to latch and hook on to prey. The jet like structure on its tail is a symbiotic organism.
Behaviour: The hydro hawk can often be seen circling near the canopies of mushroom forests, soaring on their large wings. However once they spot a potential prey item they dart towards it using their jet releasing a stream of bubbles. They then rapidly circle their prey disorientating them before finally latching on with their claws to rip and then bite their prey to death. They often latch on to seamoths but quickly let go doing no damage. They are also warded off by other large predators such as stalkers which they will jet away from. Hydro Hawks will occasionally launch themselves out the water gliding for a short period. Hydro hawks make nests at the top of table coral trees which they aggressively protect.
Attitude: Aggressive
Biomes: Mushroom forest
Spawn rarity: uncommon
Chronobiology: Diurnal
Resources:
Decomposing fish (common)
Hydro Hawk egg (common) these are found at their nest sites located at the top of the giant table coral trees in the mushroom forests. They provide a great source of food.
Hydro Hawk membrane (uncommon) can be used to make wind turbines and hydrofoils.
Hydro Hawk jet (rare) can be combined with an air sack to make a powerful jet that can allow you to blast yourself rapidly in a direction, to restock the jet additional airsacks are required.

That sounds amazing. If this gets added, it would be a very beautiful and scary thing.
