Harpy, a creature in mythological folklore depicted in Greek mythology to have the upper body of a woman with eccentric facial features and the lower body of a bird, with claws and feathered wings who'd rule the sky and forests as their home. They would defend any intruders who invade their territory. They would steal, kill and kidnap men into their landhome.
They are depicted as womenly birds with bright colors. Like the sun or the color of a flower with soft tips on the wings. Unlike Banshees, whose contrast would be shaped like a vulture with black wings, with a sneer women-like upper body and shagged dark wings.
It is not written that there are any male Harpies, but only a majority of females do. When they are finding a mate, they would allure wandering men with their voices. Like mermaids they would allure men with their singing voices, capture them and carry them all into their nests.
In the language world of Harpies, the most common sound we could depict is a shriek. They would shriek and cackle to communicate. They are famously written depicted as womenly birds who would steal and attack men for their food. Having the featherly wings and claws similar to an owl, they are depicted as ravenous monsters who would attack wandering men.

Unlike Harpies, Banshees are depicted as dark creatures. Similarly like mermaids who are soft and sirens who are lean and sharp, Harpies are depicted as soft and shreekingly bright, while banshees are gruel and dark like a vulture. Banshees are depicted as women- the spirits who roam the air, in dark and wooden forests who would screech and scare men off who would wander there.
Famous in Celtic folklore as being mournful. The creature of shrieks and wailing, the dark lamentations of the night. Similarly told, A Banshee, if she is spotted, will vanish into a cloud of mist and this action creates a noise similar to a shriek. Like a birdless spirit of a woman.
Banshees, the spirits who roam the darkness, may be described as having the complexity of red hair and white dress, a ghastly complexion- the premonition of death. There was written that if someone is about to enter a situation where it is unlikely they will come out alive, she will warn people by screaming or wailing. When several banshees appear at once, it indicates that the death of someone is great.
