A community for people who like birds, birdwatching and birding in general!
Feel free to share your photos and other birding-related content here. If a photo you post isn't yours, please credit the original creator! Additionally, it would be appreciated if the location of the sighting and a date were given when a photo or question is posted. You do not have to give the precise location, something like "Northern Idaho, June 2023" or even "North-Western US, June 2023" suffices.

They're also highly aggressive a-holes.
This sentiment always makes me laugh. We have a large family or three that live in the area and hang out on our feeder and water. They get pushed around by the morning doves, woodpeckers and sparrows. Cardinals and house finches spaz out on their own and fly off.
For mine I watched the big male hold a Carolina Wren down and murder it while the others of the Wren's group tried to dive bomb and harass the Blue Jay.
I'm not sure what the Wren's did to it, but it made me like the Jays a little less.
