Blue jay at Fort Tryon park
Blue jays are incredibly gorgeous birds but they are sadly much maligned by some in the birding community and the bulk of that dislike for Blue jays came from the patron saint of birding, John Audubon. He said this about the bird, "Who could imagine,” he mused, “that a form so graceful, arrayed by nature in a garb so resplendent, should harbour [sic] so much mischief;—that selfishness, duplicity, and malice should form the moral accompaniments of so much physical perfection!”
Happily the image of the Blue jay is improving as we learn even more about these incredibly gregarious and intelligent birds.
