Fabulous bird; bird of paradise
In Persian mythology, the Huma is a legendary bird that never alights on the ground, spending its entire life flying high in the sky. It is often referred to as a bird of fortune or paradise, as its shadow is said to bestow royalty or great luck upon anyone it falls over.
