Is it because the other birds make fun of their name?

Bravest or most foolish I have seen lately is the Bluejay that goes after my cat Chicken Wing which has taken to eating birds in the back yard

You called your cat Chicken Wing?  :laugh:

We named it Chicken Wing because when he was a kitten he held one front leg bent like a chicken wing whenever you picked him up.  He was the runt of the litter and his mother died before he should have been weened we bottle fed him three weeks at first we did not think he was going to make it

    :plus:    for raising that little runt, though it seems you've created a menace!

The bravest bird that springs to mind now is the robin, I reckon. The little fella isn't shy and dares to come very close when I'm the garden. Um, once.. I was laying bricks (building a kitchen for a friend) and there a robin was quite interested in what I was doing. The bird just sat a meter away from me and was observing me.

Oh, mustn't forget to mention the turtle dove too. The pair that frequents my garden will try to chase off magpies and/or jackdaws quite often and succeed doing so. Kinda think, they have a sense that I will cover their backs and go brave that way. Dunno..

The blackbird (T. merula) couple here aren't afraid of me one bit either. They often come begging for food when I'm outside and come up to me (up to ½ a meter). She.. often walks around and underneath the chair when I'm sitting outside. Stupid chickens. :laugh:

  I wonder how that wild turkey is doing today.  I hope she is still alive.  :birdtard:

The sparrows eating food from my former cat, with the cat sleeping not more than a meter away from his bowl.
I can do upside down chocolate moo things!

The kingfisher.

This morning I saw one on the outskirts of my little village.

Second time I saw one in my life. First I saw was about twenty years ago on the banks of the Ure.

You are luring them to their doom.  :police:
