Harpie

Harpies are monsters from Greek mythology that look like huge, ravenous vultures with a hungry women's head.They are also children of Echidna and sister the rainbow goddess Iris. Harpies appear in two myths: one in the Jason and the Argonauts and one in the Trojan/Roman myth of Aeneas. In the voyage of the Golden Fleece the Argonauts stumble across the island of Thrace, where King Phineas was being tormented by the harpies.Every day a magnificent feast was laid at for him, but the monsters swooped down and stole the succulent meats before the king could eat a bit. Two members of the Argonauts were sons of Boreas [the North Wind] and while riding the winds, chased the harpies away.

A similar story, in the legend of Aeneas, he and his crew were shipwrecked on a dessert island and were absolutely ravished. Twice the harpies stole there meal and the third time Aeneas and his crew fought back, Celaeno, there leader, cursing them by saying that they would not reach Rome without also experiencing terrible hunger.
