The Blue Jay in the City Park - Critter 65

Saturday, January 20, 2024
We may spot the Blue Jay year-round in our areas, sure, they are abundant during Spring and Summer seasons.

We have posted the Blue Jay babies previously:

The birds, actually, common birds, since we may spot them everywhere in our areas or city such as:
- city parks and gardens
- our neighborhood or backyards.
- woodland and swamp areas.
- and even in the open areas.

Surprisingly, there is one species only of Blue Jay in our city, Baton Rouge LA with scientific name is Cyanocitta cristata.

Fig 04 - Plants, just for illustration. 

Seeds could attract the Blue Jay to come to birdfeeder, since the seeds are its primary food source. 


Fig 05 - Peanuts, illustration only

The birds love to consume wide variety of seeds, some of them are sunflowers seed, peanut (shelled and unshelled) and pecans.

in addition to seeds, the birds also eat fruit and insects. Some reports say, Blue Jay even consume small vertebrates.

  3. Blue Jays are indeed beautiful birds.....We have quite a few in our yard, however...as beautiful as they are, the ones in our yard can be quite aggressive. They keep all the other birds away from the feeders. Little Rascals!

  4. Good to know what can bring in these birds. Although, I think the squirrels would have eaten it already.

  8. We have a lot of these birds in the area. They look so pretty but they can destroy other nests and baby birds. We always see a flock of birds chasing one away from their nests.
