Baby bird ruptured air sac
Hello all, I have a question. Yesterday I found an abandoned baby Blue Jay far from the nest and surrounded by cats. I took it in and checked it out, all seemed good, no visible wounds. I fed it small pieces of softened dog food through the rest of the day and noticed it slept a ton and was not...- Scp13

This common but attractive Eastern North American jay was complaining loudly just outside the tram terminal. Their crest often lies flat, but here it is raised slightly. This is presumably the paler, duller South Florida race "C. c. semplei" which has recently expanded into the Florida Keys...- jmorlan

As I said in my last photo, Blue Jays are my only regular visitors at this point. I think they know that they're the only ones getting the goodies now. I mean, you can tell that they think they have the run of the place by the smug expression on this guy!- wonderview

This common but attractive Eastern North American species was visiting a water feature behind the observatory headquarters. Their crest often lies flat as seen here.

Has anyone else experienced eastern gray squirrels that are shy, timid, or otherwise not interested in bird food?
Hello, folks! This isn't really a thread that I needed to post, but I guess I just kind of felt like posting it. Where we live, we have not experienced eastern gray squirrels being pesky. In fact, I'm starting to miss them after we moved out of a location with loads of them! We still have them...- Avon Avians

Blue Jay
Blue Jays, usually a very skittish and cautious bird when it comes to humans. But mine perch just above me while I sit on the deck, waiting for me to produce a peanut for them. They will come close enough for me to toss them and the jays catch them. I can't hand feed them, they are just too...- wonderview

Blue jays building a nest
Since spring has arrived, I thought I'd post one of my favorite photos from spring of 2021. This pair of blue jays built a nest in a tree behind our house. I kept an eye on them and their nestlings for several weeks.- MlynchKy

One of the more common visitors to my yard, a blue jay. This one's name is Otto, but when he's knocking over the basket of peanuts, his name can't be repeated in mixed company.
