I recently read a book by Jerzy Kosinski called The Painted Bird. It is a very important, but disturbing book about a young boy orphaned in Poland in WWII. In that book, there is a scene - from which the book gets its title - where a bird catcher paints a bird with bright colors and then releases it back into its flock. The other birds, not recognizing it, attack it and drive it from the flock - to the point of killing it. Does anyone have any knowledge about whether this is indeed true - and would that really happen?
Thanks for the help.
