Not the Ravenclaw. The bird.

Jackson seemed a bit hesitant, and the older Ravenclaw offered quiet advice. "Don't make eye contact, and maybe lay the first one on the ground. Sort of letting it know that there are no strings attached." Chloe set a beetle on the ground and nudged it toward the augurey.

jackson was pretty concentrated on the birds who weren't really paying much attention to him. How rude. He was a little startled when Chloe approached, but he was quite grateful for her more charismatic hand. "Oh hey," he listened to her words and watched her demonstrate. Did she... do this often?... It took a few seconds, but one of the birds had seemed to gain some interest in the newly presented food. Would it be bad form to just put the whole mountain of food out?? Get alllll the augureys? He would totally have tried that had this been last year, or even a couple months ago honestly. He tried to look around at others and see what they were doing, because otherwise he'd just keep staring these birds down. "You're pretty good with creatures, huh?"
