Fabulous Blue Facts


Hi All!

How many of you have helplessly watched your outdoor cat or dog become the victim of a blue jay air raid? I can remember watching our oragnge tabby, Spunky, recieve many attacks from one aggressive jay. Jays are very territorial. They will protect their feeding and nesting areas from various animals and humans. Dive bombing is a favorite form of attack. Jays are found throughout North America and are related to the crow, raven, and magpie. They can mimic the sound of a hawk - this is one way to they scare other birds away from their area. Jays are omnivours and enjoy insects, nuts, and seeds.

So, this spring and summer be on the lookout for these fierce birds and don't be afraid to let them join the smaller, sweeter birds at your backyard feeder.

More Blue facts to come!

Be Blessed!
