Steller Jays live in dense coniferous (trees with cones) forests of North America. They are found most commonly at low to moderate elevations. Stellar Jays are omnivores and will eat a variety of seeds and fruits. They are also good scavengers and are typically seen (and heard) where campers scraps might be or in residential neighborhoods stealing pet food. These bold Jays are good at exploiting the resources available to them.

Blue jays bury acorns and seeds. Because they sometimes forget where they left the stash, oak forests have grown in the US where there were none before.

Blue jays have a reputation as nest raiders or bullies at the backyard feeder, but they are an effective warning system for the neighborhood. Blue jays can imitate the sound of hawks, especially the red shouldered hawk, so convincingly that smaller and slower birds have a chance to run for cover.
