Blue Jay Bird

             

 There are a lot of interesting facts about the Blue Jay Bird. First of which, the binomial name is "cyanocitta cristata," which means a blue, chattering bird. The name Blue Jay may fit in with the bird because of the sound he makes, "jay." People may think that the bird's actual color is blue, but that's incorrect. Its actual color is black. We see a blue color because of pigmentation or light reflection to the feathers. We can tell what the bird is feeling by the top of their head, the crest. When its crest is down, the lower the aggression of the bird but when the crest is facing up, the aggression is at a high level. Believe it or not, blue jays are good at mimicking human speech and also cat's meowing. So there are several interesting facts about the Blue Jay Bird. Mostly blue jays exist is the eastern and central part of the United States and southern Canada. They live in urban and suburban areas, they can be seen at the park and in the forest, especially in oak trees. Their preferred food are a variety such as seeds, nuts, acorns, insects, and grains. Though, there can be an extreme eating habit that bird may feel, so when that happens they eat snails, small rodents, frogs and spiders. As of now, their status is least concerned meaning that they are not in danger and least likely to be extinct anytime soon.
