I put the feeders up to invite the songbirds, Mr Blue Jay. I’m not sure if anyone’s told you, but your song sucks and you eat too much.
Sure are nice to look at though…

I believe it’s a Steller’s Jay.
Definitely a Stellar’s. And they definitely love emptying bird feeders. Typically looking for something they like that’s not even in the feeder, seemingly. :/
They’ll scoop out everything looking for the peanuts. That’s why I have the wire on there, but it only slows them down a little.
How much did they actually eat, and how much did they throw on the ground while trying to find the good stuff?
That IS a blue jay. In fact, West of the Rockies it’s the only blue jay.

You forgot about scrub jays
That’s why I use safflower seeds exclusively.

I had to take the bird feeders down. Birdseeds were left untouched for too long. Since the cats roam the gardens, there are no more birds here.
