[CT Birds] blue jay as mimic??

[Peregrine Information Consultants]

The blue jays in my yard do this frequently, and I am embarassed to report that they fool me pretty often. I hear the "red-tailed hawk," rush to the window, and there are the jays, plundering the now-empty feeders. I think they laugh at me. I love them anyway.
