They don't handle cold weather very well, unfortunately. They only live year-round in warm climates like the American south.

I live at the northern tip of Wisconsin, and we have Blue Jays all year. They do fine in winters up here.

Yeah, I live in the Twin Cities and had a pair of jays in my yard this morning. They are lovely.

Also, I drew my sister's family as Blue Jays.

I stand corrected! We get an influx of blue jays down here every winter so I assumed they were migratory up north.

Actually checking bird guides suggest that *some* blue jays migrate, but scientists aren't sure what causes some to migrate and others to not.

Yeah, they're super invasive in the Americas and out compete native bird populations.

Want to see the most anticlimactic birth of a bird, ever?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RocNefMhFn8

Yes, a newborn bird just shot out the ground like a cork, was ignored by its parents, and ran off into the bushes. The megapodes are weird. They build elaborate incubators of rotting vegetable matter and sand, and the chicks are born "superprecocial" and dig up through the mound. Once they're free, they begin fending for themselves: no parental involvement.

batrachotoxin solves a lot of problems. if it’s not solving your problems, you’re probably not using enough

or making enough

what I’m saying is we should mass-produce synthetic batrachotoxin and put it in stuff. like bullets

Maybe :that's the joke:, but batrachotoxin won't take down all birds...
