Bulbjays are noisy, territorial birds with glassine nodules jutting from their orbits.  They nest in tangled thickets and overgrown forests.  Due to their diminutive size, bulbjays only inflict 1d6 damage with their Energy Rays.

While the adults are too surly to be kept in captivity, bulbjay hatchlings can be cage-raised to serve as natural light sources.  Bulbjay eggs fetch extremely high prices in the energy-starved Mutant Future.

Mutations:  Energy Ray (Laser/Light) (Modified), Optic Emissions (Bright Eyes)
