The '''Sparrowhead''' ({{j|ムシスズメ|Mushi Suzume|Bug Sparrow}}) is an enemy found in ''[[Hey! Pikmin]]''. It is a relative of the [[Scornet]]. It has a round orange body and dark spots on its top. It also has two large insect wings, which allow it to fly. It has black and orange eyes and a narrow beak that it uses to stab [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]]. It is smaller than [[Captain Olimar]], being about the same width and half of his height.

== Behavior ==
Sparrowheads generally spawn in groups of at least 2 individuals. They remain off-screen and descend when Olimar and his Pikmin get close. They will then hover in place until they spot a target, indicated by a chirping sound. They will attempt to skewer Pikmin or [[Captain Olimar]] by flying into them.
