Media notes
The Blue Jay making this call was alone in a tree about 20 feet up foraging as it called. I did not see the cause of his apparent alarm. There was another Blue Jay in a neighboring tree that was not calling at all. I did not see any hawks around at the time of this recording, but an owl might have been present and well camouflaged (to me, but not to the Blue Jay).
Observation details
Blue Jays were seen individually and in small groups of 2-5. They were on the farm and in the forest.
