Hinterland Who's Who - Blue Jay

via hww.ca

The bluejay is a beautiful and remarkable bird. Their ancestors have been discovered in fossils dating back more than 25 million years.

The blue jay is mostly vegetarian but carries a reputation of stealing other bird's eggs from their nests.

The blue jay is not a large bird, being only a little larger than a common Robin. Even though it's feathers appear to be a vivid blue color, it is actually a trick of the light that makes them appear to be that way.

I have only ever seen 1 bluejay in my life, and they really look blue and really are beautiful. The bluejay loves to chatter, and is a quick, sometimes aggressive bird.

It is an animal that is very interesting to read about, and I recommend following further.
