Blue Jay Kills A Baby.

Published in the Waukegan Daily Sun, Waukegan, Illinois on Friday, August 10, 1906

Charles Haines, the baby son of H. J. Haines of Urbana, Ia., was pecked about the head and face so viciously by a blue jay which attacked him while he was playing that his death resulted. The child fought desperately to drive the bird away and was almost exhausted when his mother reached his side. The bird then attacked her, but was driven off. Blood poisoning resulted from the wounds on the child’s head.
