Blue Jay
Beaumont Birdie Passport
BEN J
Birthdate: August 16
Male
Currently Resides: Ben J Rogers
A songbird familiar to many, with a perky crest,
Known for his intelligence, Ben tries to be the best.
When foraging for food, he cracks acorns with his beak,
Blue, white, and black, look out for him by a creek.
Did you know that besides their raucous jay! jay! calls, Blue Jays make a variety of musical sounds? They can do a remarkable imitation of the scream of a Red-shouldered Hawk.
