Finally, after hearing this call ring through the mountains of North Carolina all these years I captured clear video of a Blue Jay making their legendary squeaky gate, rusty pump handle or rusty swing set or close line call – if you have blue jays you know what I mean. What is interesting is I have a lot of blue jays in Florida and I have never heard this call in there before.
This is late April 2024 when Jay family groups should be broken up into mating pairs and going low profile to raise their broods so I'm not sure what's going on here with four Jays high in the top of a newly blooming tree – 3 of them patiently listening and watching. By the time I got my camera on a tripod and found the right blue jay to focus on it had been calling continuously for 5 minutes and continued calling for 5 more minutes. So 10 minutes of continuous squeaky gate call delivered with full body involvement – which looks kind of exhausting. You can also hear some blue jays in the distance also making the pump handle call. This particular call probably travels the greatest distance in the valley.

Mother Screech Owl Eats a Live Snake
Ad
Snake Sushi. Father Screech Owl Odie drops off a very live snake for Luna to deal with - it takes her a awhile to get it down. Live feed continues at: https://www.youtube.com/mybackyardbir...
Luna has laid three eggs this season which is normal for our Backyard owls. She laid her first egg on March 8th and Hatching should begin in about 26 to 30 days or by the end of the first week of April. Then fledging would be about 4 weeks after that in early May .

Landlubber Herons Stalk Hayfield
A small flock of Little Blue Herons quickly and methodically forages through the field for insects. Little Blue Herons are not endangered or uncommon, but are listed as threatened by the State of Florida. They are the least likely heron or egret I have encountered over the years and rarely seen foraging in flocks as they almost always forage alone.
The little blue heron can be found in freshwater, salt and brackish water environments. These include mangrove forests, bogs, swamps, salt marshes, tidal flats, estuaries, streams, lakes and flooded fields, but rarely hay fields.
In North America, they tend to favor freshwater habitats, while in the Caribbean, they are more often found in saltwater.
