The Yello Dello
From Homestar Runner Wiki
- This article is about the character. For the toon, see In Search of the Yello Dello.
The Yello Dello is a large bird found only in North-Eastern Potamia. The Yello Dello is, according to the Steve Irwin-like host of the Discover Network, "the most rare and beautiful bird in this entire cartoon". She is a large, yellow ostrich-like bird with inexplicably human legs ending in red high-heels. She eats clam meat and seems to live atop a large mountain. Strong Bad believes the Yello Dello is one hot bird. Homestar Runner, Pom Pom, and Strong Sad embarked on a quest to acquire her and give her to Marzipan for her birthday. Despite her beauty, the Yello Dello can turn vicious in an instant, as Homestar found out to his cost. Although they considered shooting her, Homestar and Pom Pom were able to capture her alive after Strong Sad bored her to sleep. Unfortunately, Strong Bad had told Marzipan of Homestar's present ahead of time, and Homestar made the mistake of greeting Marzipan with a roast turkey. Believing the turkey to be the Dello, Marzipan slapped Homestar and stormed off.
Despite having a rather masculine-sounding voice, The Yello Dello is apparently a female, as Marzipan and Strong Sad refer to her as such.
