Our daily influx of Blue Jays has recently increased from 2 to 6 and it seems that our other regulars (nuthatch, goldfinches, purple finches, various sparrows, etc) are less in evidence. The constant traffic of 6 jays swooping down is pretty busy and we're wondering if that might be the reason that the other birds have been around less often. We have various yard feeders; platform type, nyjer tube, a square one that closes the ports if squirrels stand on the perches, and others. The Blue Jays eat mainly peanuts in the shell on the platform feeder, but recently have started hanging like acrobats off all the feeders (except the nyjer tube) and pecking away at the sunflowers and mixed seed when the peanuts are gone. Are they disruptive to the other birds? Should we stop feeding them so that they'll leave? Thanks for your input. Anna Gardner Black Rock, Kings Co
