Do you like to walk through the park early in the morning? If you do, you might see an
interesting bird. It has black and white marks on its face. It has a black and white tail.
This bird might pretend to make the sound of a hawk. It might steal wasp eggs from a wasp
nest. It might bury an acorn in the ground. It might nibble on acorns or nuts. It might gobble
seeds found on the ground.
You could see it chasing grasshoppers, caterpillars, lizards, frogs, or other small animals.
If you are lucky, you might see this bird catching an insect as it flies in the air. Zip! Zap!
Goodbye, bug!
During your walk, this bird might be sitting on the trees or shrubs.
This bird could be running
to and fro on the ground.
Its blue-green spotted eggs will be hidden in its nest.
If you see the nest, you will see twigs,
little pieces of bark, leaves, and trash. The nest will probably be hidden in a corner of a
building. It might be in an old, broken crate.
Or finally, it might be hidden as high as thirty feet
up in a tree.
What is the mystery bird? Take a walk in the park. You might see the blue jay!
