Observation details
This is a recording of 5 Jays (all sitting in trees above us) making calls new to us, very loud. They had moved in quickly and we assumed they were mobbing or warning off a potential predator (a few minutes later we found a Great Horned Owl nearby). Merlin recorded this as "Broad Winged Hawk" so we assume these Jays were imitating the sound to chase away a potential threat.
