Looking good!
I think just like any teenager... it's just a phase. An awkward phase where they like to complain about most everything.
"But mommmmm....."
It's pretty, but I still want to kill it!Man! It doesn’t get much prettier than that!
Deep breath...okay, better now.You’re getting pretty surly! Are these plants getting to you? Lol!
I love seeing the lime yellow/green fade on the new growth. Means gear up for rapid and explosive growth
Yep, blue jays collect things for their nest, which is why they picked my plant tags. (damn birds)I love seeing the lime yellow/green fade on the new growth. Means gear up for rapid and explosive growth
Blue Jays are corvids like crows, and mockingbirds. Very smart birds, but also bullies. If you have bird feeders dont expect any song birds to hang out much while the blue jay is nesting. They become aggressive, they'lll chase off other birds and swoop at you if they think you're too close to the nest.
There is a reason blue jays are becoming less common in a lot of places. People get fed up with them, their agression, and their bully nature. Unlike mockingbirds, which are like a guardian species that warns the other birds when predators are coming and what theyre doing... blue jays are a**holes. Especially when nesting. Mickingbirds will literally defend nests that arent even theirs from birds of prey. You've probably seen this happening before. And crows are only a**holes to you or other birds, if you were the a**hole first (usually).
People are going to find this a tad brutal.Yep, blue jays collect things for their nest, which is why they picked my plant tags. (damn birds)
I'm a birder and we have a feeder, but don't fill it in the summer because of the jays and red wing black birds.
Hubby has been knocking down their nest from the front of the house every day for a week and they still haven't gotten the hint.
The only reason I don't go after them is the fact they eat tent caterpillars.People are going to find this a tad brutal.
There's an old country fellow i do mowing and stuff for every other weekend. He keeps very ornate feeders and bird houses all over his very detailed and landscaped yard. He whips out his pellet gun as soon as he see's the same blue jay visit more then once in a single day. You can absolutely tell corvids apart by their patterning and personality both.
He does not like blue jays at all. Hates em. My parents hated them. I hate them. They like to nest in my moms garage and swoop at you. I don't know a single fan of songbirds that likes blue jays lol
I've had the same problem with them did'nt like them building nests under doorways. We left 1 nest up between roof an doorway maybe a 8" space/ledge they built and hatched a few babies but when the heat set in they got cooked under the roof looked like when we no longer saw life we removed the nest.The only reason I don't go after them is the fact they eat tent caterpillars.
I've also watched them pick a cocoon off the side of the house and rip it open.
Im sorry i type such large messages, am a touch typer and i ramble on, often.The only reason I don't go after them is the fact they eat tent caterpillars.

Jays will make hawk sounds to freak out other birds so they can steal their loot. They are def (smart) assholesI love seeing the lime yellow/green fade on the new growth. Means gear up for rapid and explosive growth

I had one living nearby that terrorized our dog. He would flutter over the dog and quickly drop and bite his tail. It was a big Lab but he would tuck tail and run. They're just noisy bulliesPeople are going to find this a tad brutal.

My mocking birds that hang out at moms gang up on blue jays and attack them til they leave now a days. They never bucked up to the blue jays like that til after we did though. They would chase off crows and hawks, but were intimidated by the blue jays xDJays will make hawk sounds to freak out other birds so they can steal their loot. They are def (smart) assholes
