Blue Jay Sound

The Blue Jay’s latin name is Cyanocitta cristata. They are native to eastern and central North America. Their preferred habitat is all kinds of forests, oak trees, forest edges, urban areas, suburban areas, and where there are bird feeders. A female Blue Jay bird can most often be found with its baby Blue Jay bird during breeding season, which is from March to July. Their migration is always random, and never the same place at the same time. There are a variety of Blue Jay bird sounds (also known as the Blue Jay bird call). The most often heard is a loud jeer. They also make clear whistled notes and gurgling sounds. Their population is slowly declining. The Blue Jay bird can be found at Coal Creek Farm year round. If you are interested in setting up a Blue Jay bird feeder or a Blue Jay birdhouse, you’ll want to fill it with acorns, nuts, seeds, caterpillars, grasshoppers and beetles. The Blue Jay flies at a speed of about 20-25 miles per hour.
