A uraeus resembles a vibrantly colored cobra. The serpent’s scales are the rich gold-flecked blue of lapis lazuli and its eyes gleam white, but its most distinguishing feature is a pair of feathery bronze wings. It glides gracefully through the air with a deliberate vigilance that reveals its intelligence. A young uraeus is not fully grown, and is approximately two feet long and weighs about three pounds. |
