Mobbing behavior; family of Blue Jays, Cardinals, Wrens, WWDoves, BCTitmouse, and even Black-chinned Hummingbirds.
Observation details
Family of Blue Jays, including youngsters who fledged about 2 weeks ago, were mobbing something. Birds were intently focused on something near the ground; perhaps a snake that had taken refuge under several Sotol plants. This was very typical behavior for a snake threat. About 30 birds of various species gathered in a 20 x 20 foot area. With more birds arriving as I watched.
