Thanks for your response, Andy. That is as I expected and I agree, the
primary objective of the MBBA is to confirm breeding status. The Atlas work
has provoked many of us to take a closer look at bird behaviour, and it
would be great to use this opportunity to further document the life
histories of the birds in our area. Perhaps the MBBA listserv is the place
to do this.

Hi John,

 

Blue Jay courting is indeed starting now, and males feeding females is part
of that.

 

Hitch is, the jays are still in loose flocks that are ranging widely, even
though many of the flock members are mated pairs. Plus there's a small
portion of jays that are migratory, and will still be moving up to late
April. So best bet is to wait until then to write the "D". Or better yet,
just wait for those noisy fledglings.

 

Cheers,

Andy Horn

Subject: [NatureNS] Bird behavior question

Hi All,
   While watching two Blue Jays squabble yesterday I noted a behaviour that
I hadn't observed before. Both birds stopped fighting and placed their
heads, opposite each other, flat on the surface of my deck where the
dispute was taking place. They repeated this action a few times holding the
position for a few seconds each time. One bird then flew off and the
remaining bird did the action one more time before leaving.
   Has anyone ever seen this behaviour? What was the meaning of this odd
behaviour?  All the best.

<span class=3Dapple-style-span>&nbsp;&nbsp; While watching two Blue Jays =
squabble
yesterday I noted a behaviour that I hadn't&nbsp;observed before. Both =
birds
stopped fighting and&nbsp;placed their heads, opposite each =
other,&nbsp;flat
on&nbsp;the surface&nbsp;of&nbsp;my deck where the dispute was taking =
place.
They&nbsp;repeated this&nbsp;action a few times holding the position for =
a few
seconds each time. One bird then flew off and the remaining bird did the =
action
one more time before leaving.</span><br>
<span class=3Dapple-style-span>&nbsp;&nbsp; Has anyone ever seen this =
behaviour?
What was the meaning of this odd behaviour?&nbsp; All the best. =
