Vulture

Vultures are found in the Desert biome and are the most common enemies in it. They roost on solid blocks, then when the player comes close or attacks it, it begins flying. They attack the player by flying up into the sky then swooping down to cause damage. This makes broadswords effective against vultures, as you can simply knock them back as they swoop down.

An Alternative way to kill them would be getting wooden arrows, and perhaps a Silver bow, and shooting them.

Currently, they only drop 50 - 85 Copper Coins. They only need one block of sand to spawn and will spawn underground or in shallow water if sand is present.

Update Info
1.0.5 - Vulture Added.

Bugs

 * If the sand under a roosting Vulture is removed then, though the sand will fall normally, the vulture will not. It will instead remain standing on the air.
 * Sometimes it can happen that multiple vultures spawn in the same position. Unconfirmed reports of up to three vultures in the same position.
