The following is an excerpt from Part One:
The Blue Jay, native to North America, is regarded as an aggressive bird. It is famous for chasing other birds from feeders and other food sources. It is known to even mob and chase predatory birds, such as hawks and owls, which occasionally feed on them. Even humans are not spared their aggressive treachery. This impressive-on-the-surface creature—with its white face collared by black, and plumage of lavender speckled on the wings and tail with black, white, and sky blue—are classified as omnivores. The Latin word omni translates to “all,” with vorare meaning “to devour.” The North American C/O can well be considered its human counterpart.
