How to Start A Short Encounter With a Rare Bird Genshin Impact

Hunt Dusk Birds in South of Apam Woods

The first of these Dusk Birds can be found south of Apam Woods. The exact spot is going to be marked on your map, so proceed to that location. For the Dusk Bird to be able to spawn, the weather needs to be Sunny in that region. If it is raining there, you can change the weather to Sunny by using the Vintage Lyre item you get from the Varuna quest. Be careful when approaching the bird. Don’t get too close, or you will scare it off. If you have done that, then you will need to wait for the next daily reset and try again. When you have the Dusk Bird in your sights, shoot it with a bow. This will cause enemies to spawn in. Defeat them and talk with Shefket again. He will point you to the next spot.
