    The Stymphalian Birds were deadly birds created by Ares that lived in a city in Arcadia and had bronze beaks and feathers that could launch like projectiles. As one of his tasks, Heracles was instructed to defeat the Stymphalian Birds. To do so, Heracles used krotala, or noise-making castanets of bronze, given to him by Athena to scare the birds out of their marsh and pick them off with arrows as they fled. After completing this challenge, Heracles rid the area of the man-eating birds.
