Yes, they beat the red-winged blackbirds this time.

Seen yesterday in Boulder, CO, USA.

First time I ever saw a group of Bluejays get loud and constantly cawing... I eventually found that they were following a water snake down the creek and were giving warning calls. Pretty cool.

I actually think something like that was happening when I took this picture. The park was full of birds and the jays were all hanging out together, collectively making a lot of noise seemingly out of nowhere.
