Who Stole My Nuts? Eurasian Jay
Artist:
Kastamonu, TurkeyNotes:
Known for their future planning skills and impressive predator call mimicry, Eurasian jays dominate the deep forests of the Küre Mountains. With the presence of wild predators in the area, what are they preparing for? In the soundscape, you can hear them responding to ominous footsteps, warning and silencing other bird species. Perhaps their greatest concern is safeguarding the seeds and nuts they’ve stored for winter from other species.
Listen to the social behaviors of Eurasian jays in mid-autumn.
