This and That
Bu Charles E. Trace,ueH.


The band of blue jays you see in your
yard these days is family.
Mother, father and two to four schil-
dren make up the group.
They are all about the same size, and
all make the same sort of noise, and
plenty of it.
For sheer fun in nature, there is moth
ing to equal the jay. He loves life and
makes the most of it. For him, no
worry about atomic bombs.
"Shucks," yells he. Il have been sit
ting on the edge of an atomic bomb
since the day I was born-and so have
you! What's new about the atomic
bomb?"
What, indeed?
Blue jays fly into our own yard every
morning at 7:20 by the clock.
There are exactly half dozen in this
band.
They spend a pleasant half hour eat
ing sunfiower seed. Other birds at the
feeding station do not mind them in
the least, except during the first few
minutes of their invasion.
This initial down swoop always sends
the smaller songsters scurrying into the
shrubs and trees, and no wonder, be-
cause it is accompanied by the famous
screams of this beautiful bird.
Few birds fairly yell, but the blue jay
does. He is a great deal of mimic, but
this war whoop is his own invention.
1t is commonly spoken of as raucous,
but to the mind and ear attuned to jays
it is pleasant, enough sound
In fact. If one does not learn to ap-
preciate the sounds made by this bird,
he will not welcome it half as much, if
at all.
Another handicap to get over, in well
coming this real American, is the propa-
many years.
This propaganda began with the great
Audubon, whose plate showing jay
with a dripping egg in its talons seemed
to have set the fashion.
Since that day, the blue jay has been
slandered too often The truth is that
this is not bad bird, as birds go. It is
equally true that some members of the
tribe do now and then kill small birds
and eat the eggs of other birds.
Exactly the same may be said of al
most all species. Every bird family has
It's bad members. 1t is impossible to say
that jay will kill a small bird and not
to say that even the tiny Jenny Wren
has done exactly the same thing.
The mother wren often punctures the
eggs of her rival in the next nest. Ma
ture is not always nice, in the modern
sense of that much abused word.
\
Jays may be attracted to almost any
suburban yard by sunflower seed and
peanuts.
Do not mind If they fly away with
most Of the latter. It is comical in the
extreme to watch jay stuff its cheeks
with peanuts.
This hiding is good thing, because it
provides food for the squirrels and many
birds.
The jay also slows sunf1ower seed
away in crevices of bark, often flying for
miles to do this, thus providing winter
treasury for the many small things
of the Wild
Such birds as nuthatches and brown
creepers will feast on the bits Of these
seeds, and since they are great tree
sanitarians, cleaning up thousands of
insects, eggs and grubs, this service OF
the blue jays to them Is something
which Is appreciated all around, and
should be especially by man, who is
fnal beneficiary Of It al.
