Brief Bio
In Norse mythology, the "World Tree birds" refer to an eagle and a hawk that reside at the top of Yggdrasil, the World Tree. The eagle is often described as wise, and the hawk, named Veðrfölnir, sits between its eyes, potentially serving as a divine observer. These two birds are part of a complex ecosystem on Yggdrasil, interacting with other creatures like the dragon Níðhöggr and the squirrel Ratatoskr
