Is a blue jay a primary consumer secondary consumer tertiary consumer or a scavenger decomposer?

Answer 1

Primary consumers eat plant matter, secondary consumers eat organisms that have fed from the plant-eaters and tertiary consumers are organisms that feed from secondary consumers.

Scavengers and decomposers feed on dead animals and plant material, including all kind of food waste.

Blue jays have a very varied diet and eat almost anything that could be considered as a food source.

When they eat fruits, grains, or berries, they are a primary consumer.

When they eat meat, including small invertebrates, they are secondary, or possibly tertiary consumers depending exactly what their food has eaten before being eaten by the blue jay.

When they eat table scraps or other food waste they are scavengers.
