Description[]
A Steelpecker is a small species of alien avian. They are presumably named for their ability and penchant for pecking their beaks on pieces of metal, though it is unclear exactly what purpose this serves, as there is rarely food or anything of use to be found inside of something metallic. A steepecker was seen on the planet Jakku pecking at some metallic ruins left behind of some vehicle or siege weapon from the Battle of Jakku thirty years earlier. The scavenger Rey traveled past one while on her speeder-bike.
