Yes, jays do want that scrub
A scrub-jay is a bird that prefers sandy scrub, not trees
Hangin’ out by his family’s side with territorial pride
but his song just sounds off-key????
Florida scrub jays might not be the most melodious singers, but they are endemic to a very specific habitat: Scrub! Sandy openings and lower vegetation make for ideal Florida scrub-jay habitat, found along ancient sandy ridges that run down the middle of the state, old sand dunes along the coasts, and sandy riverbanks in the interior. Scrub-jays are territorial and live in family groups to help defend their space. As for their singing? Well…. let’s just say they won’t be topping any charts. ????
Be sure to check out the Florida Scrub-Jay Festival / SpringFest this Saturday! https://www.facebook.com/events/387629413871044/ #hobesoundflorida
