Figured the bird for an arctic tern, so I couldn’t make anything from that.

In the Hunger Games movies, the mockingjay is the symbol of resistance and rebellion. It's also associated with the phrase "catching fire," so it's not a bad symbol for a political candidate. But there also may be a suggestion of deceptiveness, which may not be what a campaign wants to put out there (and with an arrow through it, too).

It's not a real bird. The author invented it. I would have come up with all this yesterday, but there are so many movies of this sort out there (Hunger Games, Maze Runner, Divergent) that it's hard to keep them straight.
