Question of the day: What do Blue Jays eat?

Mommy and I were looking at different kinds of birds and we were seeing at some Blue Jays and I wanted to know what they eat?

We looked up National Geographic and found some information. Blue Jays eat acorns, nuts, and seeds—though they also eat small creatures such as caterpillars, grasshoppers, and beetles.



You can read more about Blue Jays at http://animals.nationalgeographic.com/animals/birds/blue-jay/

Mommy's notes: We are slowly learning about different kinds of birds. Other than the common birds like eagle, crow,turkey, duck,sparrow, vulture, parrot, macaw, peacock, vulture, we are trying to read about other birds like robin, cardinal, finch, heron, etc.

Our activity for the spring/summer is to set up 3 bird feeders with 3 different kinds of bird food and observe the kinds of birds that each kind of food.
