One fact I'm surprised you didn't include is that they're quiet for a Corvid. Canada Jays closely resemble what you would call an "oversized Chickadee".

Back in the early 1990's deep in the woods in Northern Wisconsin. There were Canadian Jays in abundance in the area. It was winter and I had a bag of seasoned bread crumbs that had turned stale. I dumped them on the snow. I soon noticed a pair of Canadian Jays flying the bread crumbs up into the trees. This went on for quite a while then I heard a tapping sound on the door near where I had dumped the bread crumbs. I opened the door and there was one of the Jays staring at me. I had no more crumbs but I did have a loaf of bread that I scattered around for them. Very intelligent and interesting creatures

@reginaldwinsor2759 3 года назад
These birds never cease to amaze me. Their ability to mimic other sounds in the forest and seemingly witty personalities are evident for those who observe their behavior. Their soft cuing sounds to loud shrills are interesting. They will it seems make fun of someone who tries to imitate other birds which I try often. That is fun. I recall a few years ago, I was napping on a Spring sunny day while taking a break from a hike and woke to seeing one on my chest. I think he/she saw an opportunity to grab a snack off my eyeball. Yes, they do have a sinister side as well and although they appear social friendly creatures, they are very opportunistic. So, they must be treated with respect, knowing that they are the true masters of their domain.

Of course also known as Whisky Jacks or Camp Robbers. We have them in Northern Minnesota, they show up when I'm out in the woods cutting firewood. As soon as I sit down on a log to eat my lunch, the 4 or 5 in a nearby tree quickly increases to a dozen or more. They're a very friendly sort, so I share my sandwiches with them, they come down and eat right on the log I'm sitting on and at my feet. I learned not to put my sandwich down even for a moment, they'll make short work of it, like a flock of flying piranha.

@Momcat_maggiefelinefan
@Momcat_maggiefelinefan 3 года назад
I grew up in the bush (Boreal Forest) in Northern Ontario. The Whiskey Jack was a constant companion so you never felt alone when out and about. We always carried meat scraps, nuts, fruit etc. in order to feed our little friends. They perch in your hands, eat what they want and follow people who are regular visitors to their woods. Always a hazard to campers, I’ve had them steal meat off a grill at my campsite, never touching the grill nor harming themselves. Dine and dash indeed. I live in the south of Ontario now, and miss these charming Canadian icons. Global warming is decimating their food stores as freezing temperatures are moderating and their food frequently rots. We need to be the custodians of Nature, which we think we are, and save all the wonderful creatures who rely on cold weather to survive.

I've lived in Ottawa and Montreal all my life, and was shocked to learn that you've got the gray jay in NL and BC. I've literally worked in wild bird rehab, and have never seen one. Pulled up the map of their range, and it extends across nearly all of Canada - but skips over my part of eastern Ontario and southwest Quebec. Crazy! Thanks for teaching me a thing or two.

Lesley, thanks for putting another wonderful bird lesson! I see these in northern MN quite often and are just as you described, sharp eyed and happy to steal a meal from a camper who turns their back. They are one of the highlights of trips into the BWCA and will often eat right out of your hand or off the top of your hat. Now I know so much more about them, thanks again.

I was outside my car guiding my wife through a rut on a fire trail in New Hampshire(trying to spot a moose), and she happened to look in the mirror. She said there was a bird following me, as I was walking behind the car for about 30 feet. I thought she was just noticing a coincidence, until I turned around and saw 2 of these birds about 15 feet away from me moving from perch to perch, getting closer. It was the coolest thing I have seen, I had never seen these birds before, I am definitely thankful for Google. My Audubon book I was given as a kid didn't have these listed.

Wow, what a great video! I remember encountering these birds in the Mountains North of Santa Fe NM in the 1980s - I spent a lot of time up in Hyde Park...who doesn't love Corvids? They were very brave birds, landed on and ate from my hand. I liked the nesting part of the video, amazing catch the part where the bird is pressing her body into the nest. Beautiful!

Wow! Never heard of this Jay before, fascinating and sooo pretty, I love birds with a black/grey/white tri coloured plumage. We have Coal Tits here in UK, these Jays remind me of them, albeit a much larger version 🥰

These birds are plentiful here in Saskatchewan. We also call them Whiskey Jack's here like some other provinces. Very friendly bird and easy to photograph. Great video Lesley!

Thanks for sharing your Canadian birds with us down here in northern Ohio. We saw our first ever White-winged Crossbill and Evening Grosbeaks today. There have also been many sightings of Common Redpolls. These birds are very difficult to find in Ohio. My wife and I have waited the past six years to see them. The only Canadian Jay we have ever seen was in Washington State on the Olympic Peninsula.

Thanks for the information on these adorable looking birds. Have seen them mentioned as Corvids, but I live in Pennsylvania, so have never seen them. I found it very interesting how early in the year they nest! Very smart to have the kids fledged by April in Canada!

They remind me of the Siberian jays we have here in northern parts of Norway. They are probably related, also very social towards people. Love them ❤️. Thank you for this wonderful video.
