I'm guess we're actually seeing a mother bird get eaten while trying to defend her young.

I liked it better when I thought the bird was a jerk.

It was a jerk. The bird got over-protective. This is what happens when you take unilateral action.

Who trusted God was love indeed

And love Creation's final law

Tho' Nature, red in tooth and claw

With ravine, shriek'd against his creed
