Yes, they beat the red-winged blackbirds this time.
Seen yesterday in Boulder, CO, USA.
Not just loud, chatty too!
Oh yes! Here they can be really shy when they’re not in the mood, but on chatty days, oh boy, they will be caw, caw, caw, caw staring at you the whole afternoon.
First time I ever saw a group of Bluejays get loud and constantly cawing… I eventually found that they were following a water snake down the creek and were giving warning calls. Pretty cool.
I actually think something like that was happening when I took this picture. The park was full of birds and the jays were all hanging out together, collectively making a lot of noise seemingly out of nowhere.
You should see how lively it gets when you’ve got a bunch of Terns around! LOL
Oh, of course I’m not comparing them to those forsaken seabirds!
