A. E. B. 20 The Blue Jay 21 The Blue Jay A flash of blue, a dash of white, Gleam from the branches dead,As from oaks to beeches and hickories flits The jay with the crested head;Then in crannies the acorns and nuts he stores, His winters feast to spread. Tis said hes the dread of the feathered-folk,— This robber in bright array—That they mourn when he drives them from new-builtnests. Or carries their eggs away,And cry aloud when he takes their young, With his Yah, yah, jay! Devoted is he to his nestlings and mate. Or to jays that are feeble and old;Delightfully gentle his household ways. Though his neighbors he loves to scold.Pedunkle! Pedunkle! Parlez-vous! Sweet tones his voice can hold. Hes a handsome, noisy, unsociable bird,— An amusing mimic and tease;Hes the bane of the sleepy, half-blind owls, Till the mischievous fellow they seize;But in spite of his pranks, we like him well. This clever knave of the trees. A. E. B. 22</i><br><b>Text Appearing After Image:</b><br><i>9 ^sr BLUE JAY The Cardinal 23 The Cardinal When autumn woods are bare and dead, A crested bird, of cardinal red. Sways like an oak-leaf overhead; And sighs, D d d r r r e e e a a a r ! r ! r ! When winter woods are white with snow, And drifts pile high as wild winds blow. Like flame this torchlike bird doth glow; And cries, W w w h h h e e e w ! w ! w ! When springtimes crimson buds appear, And red-gold columbines are here. This songster welcomes the new year; And sings, C c c h h h e e e e e e r ! r ! r ! When summers sun sheds scorching beams,And cardinal flowers beside the streamsGrow wild, this brilliant bird still gleams;And whistles, H h h u u u e ! e ! e ! A. E.
