The accounts of the piasa bird were first written down by a French explorer. We’ved talked a lot about the Europeians but when I think of Europeans I think of the British or the spanish. I don't really think of the French. Maybe it's because of our location in California. The explorer goes on to say We came across “two painted monsters” that were as large as a calf; they have horns on their heads like those of deer, a horrible look, red eyes, a beard like a tiger’s, a face somewhat like a man’s, a body covered with scales, and so long a tail that it winds all around the body, passing above the head and going back between the legs, ending in a fish’s tail. Green, red, and black are the three colors composing the picture. The natives in this land are known as the illiniwek.
