The story of a sick baby bird nursed back to health and into the wild.;When Jemima, a young orphaned blue jay, is brought to wildlife rehabilitator Zickefoose, she is a virtually tailless, palm-sized bundle of gray-blue fluff. Though starved and very sick, she is nursed back to health and raised for eventual release. In the meantime, Jemima takes over the house and the rest of the author's summer. Shortly after release Jemima turns up with a deadly disease, but medicating a free-flying wild bird is a challenge. Zickefoose shows how Jemima became a creative muse and source of strength through her own heartbreaking changes. -- adapted from jacket;The egg -- Facebook waif -- Fledging and feeding -- Stuart -- Life with Jemima -- Release -- Titmouse wars -- Vigilance and intelligence -- Calamity strikes -- Cementing the bond -- As seen on TV -- Peg and me -- Living on the fault line -- Catastrophic molt -- Who's saving whom? -- The urge for going -- Jemima in winter -- Other blue celebrities -- Lessons from a jay -- Step into my parlor.
