What?! Don't you know about the Keese? Use Z Targeting when it gets close. Even if it flies off, I'll follow it for you.

Drops
When the Keese is defeated, one of 16 slots is picked at random, so each slot is a 6.25% chance.
| Drop | Chance |
|---|---|
 10 Arrows | 62.5% |
| 30 Arrows | 12.5% |
 Magic Jar | 12.5% |
 Magic Jar (large) | 12.5% |
Arrows need the Hero's Bow and bombs need a Bomb Bag; magic needs the magic meter. Without them that slot drops nothing. A Recovery Heart at full health becomes a Green Rupee.
The arrow that defeats it decides the drop, whatever the slot: a Fire Arrow gives 30 Arrows, an Ice Arrow a Recovery Heart, and a Light Arrow a Purple Rupee.
Where to find it
Official guide
Keese are bats that reside in dungeons and other dark caves. Defeat them quickly with arrows or a Sword swipe when they dive down to bite you.
