blue jays are my favorite mostly because of their personalities. they aren't silly hippity-hop cheap-cheap noobs like sparrows, they aren't grumpy argumentative boomer uncles like crows, they aren't weird loner stalkers like hawks, and they're not domestic little teacher's pets like parakeets. instead they like swoop around, land, take a close look at their surroundings, do some sick acrobatics to find some food, and then go "KERSHERK" to claim their territory. because they're smart, since they're corvids, but they're not fat boomers like crows. they're like the solid snake of birds

Unlike the fags on this board who seem to think magpies are cool I can remember a magpie lifting a pheasant chick as it walked in file behind it's mother.
