A common North American bird with bright blue plumage, known for its loud call and intelligent, social behavior.
From 'blue' (the bird's striking blue coloring) and 'jay' (from Old French 'jai' or Latin 'gaius', referring to various jay species); name applied because of the bird's brilliant blue appearance.
Blue jays are surprisingly intelligent—they can mimic hawk calls to scare other birds away from feeders, they remember people who feed them, and they plan for winter by hiding thousands of acorns.
