blue jays
Loud, crested corvids
Blue jays are medium-sized North American songbirds with bright blue plumage, white underparts, and a distinctive crest.
Known for their loud, harsh calls and aggressive behavior at feeders, they're intelligent birds that cache food and sometimes mimic hawk calls.
The blue jays chased the squirrel away from the feeder. (Capitalized Blue Jays is the Toronto baseball team.)
