The Blue Jay is a very striking, large and loud songbird. It is one of those birds that we always enjoy seeing in our yard and at our feeders. Jays like shelf feeders over hanging feeders.
In the picture you can see the bird’s crest is down. This is common when Blue Jays are feeding peacefully or interacting with their family groups.

Love blue jays, always have. But I think they do not like to be watched – grin. They fly quick if they spy a human looking at them. Not like the robins, who just hop ahead a few steps and then a few more if you continue walking toward them.

Agree about the jays, they do not like humans around. And the visual of the robin is perfect. Thanks for your support.

He is beautiful! I didn’t know about his crest coming down anytime. When I looked at him I thought something was off, thanks for explaining. Great picture. Thanks for posting.
