'''Screech''' is a parrot enemy who appears in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]''. He is a dark-brown parrot with red tail feathers and a white beak and talons. He is slightly larger than [[Squawks]]. Screech has big yellow eyes with two small pupils and has three claws on each talon. His wings are red at the tip. Screech's role is the same in both games, where he appears at the second half of his own level, [[Screech's Sprint]], where the [[Kong]]s must enter an [[Animal Barrel]] to transform into [[Squawks]] to race Screech, both of which compete to cross the finish line first. The race ends when either Screech or Squawks crosses the line first. If Screech wins, the Kongs lose a life. In the ending's Cast of Characters, Screech is categorized under [[Lazy Landlubbers]].

Squawks appears in two pieces of promotional artwork, including the game cover, where he fights Squawks using a baseball bat, and in a bramble area, where [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] and [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] are seen passing by him.
Screech is a dark-brown parrot with red tail feathers and a white beak and talons. He is slightly larger than [[Squawks]]. Screech has big yellow eyes with two small pupils and has three claws on each talon. His wings are red at the tip.


Screech has his own theme music, "Bad Bird Rag," which plays during his race. In the [[Donkey Kong Country 2 (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance version]] of ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'', Screech's theme music plays while [[Diddy Kong]] and [[Dixie Kong]] (transformed into [[Rambi]]) are being chased through the last stretch of the level [[Rambi Rumble]] by [[King Zing]].

Screech has an identical role in both ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' and ''Donkey Kong Land 2''. In both games, during the second half of Screech's Sprint, the [[Kong]]s must enter an [[Animal Barrel]] to transform into Squawks, who must race against Screech. Like in traditional races, Squawks's objective is to get in first place. He must fly between [[bramble]]s and dodge [[Zinger]]s as he makes his way to the finish line. The race ends when either Screech or Squawks crosses the line first. If Squawks loses to Screech, the Kongs lose a life and must restart the race.
 
In the ending's Cast of Characters, Screech is categorized under [[Lazy Landlubbers]].
 
In the [[Game Boy Advance]] version, there is a running timer at the bottom left of the screen to keep track of the race duration.

==Trivia==
*Screech has his own theme music, which plays when he is being raced. In the Game Boy Advance remake of ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'', Screech's theme music plays while [[Diddy Kong]] and [[Dixie Kong]] (transformed into [[Rambi]]) are being chased through the last stretch of the level [[Rambi Rumble]] by [[King Zing]].
*Screech appears in the background of the ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' box art, where he hits Squawks with a baseball bat. Screech also appears in group artwork where Diddy and Dixie move through a bramble area despite them never directly encountering Screech themselves.
