*Even though the black eggs aren't directly connected to them, their bodies seen exploding after the destruction of their eggs. It is possible the reasoning for this is that the first explosion (caused by the black egg) is the one that causes the birds to explode shortly afterward.

*Rocs may be based off the persian legend of giant eagles called Rocs.
