Speak With Avians

This spell empowers the priest to comprehend and communicate with any normal or giant avian that is not mindless. The priest is able to ask questions of and receive answers from the creature, although friendliness and cooperation are by no means assured. Furthermore, terseness and evasiveness are likely in basically wary and cunning creatures, while the more stupid ones will make inane comments. If the animal is friendly or of the same general alignment as the priest, it may do some favor or service for the priest (as determined by the DM). This spell differs from speak with animals and speak with monsters in that it allows conversation only with normal or giant non-fantastic avians such as cardinals, doves, giant eagles, jays, ravens, and so on.
