Dark short stories based on birds. There is nothing cooler than that. Each short story has its own charms and having birds be the center of the narrative is fun. I always love to see the darker take on nature especially something that is so delicate and small like birds. It is another way to appreciate the species and recognize how smart, strong, and dangerous they can be. My favorite would probably be the first and last story.
