We made it to Fredricton, so I will tell you about a bird in Fredricton, the blue jay. They weigh 65 to 100 g and have a wingspan of 40 cm. They are 24 to 30 cm long. They can live up to 7 years. Blue jays have one brood of 3 to 6 eggs between March and July. They usually eat seeds, nuts, small vertebrates, insects, fruit, bird eggs and birds. Blue jays will come to your feeders. The blue jay is the provincial bird of Prince Edward Island.
We are 6329 km from Tofino.
Here is a video with lots of information about blue jays.
Reminder, we have active fundraisers:
We're collecting cans and bottles, really anything that has a deposit on it to return for both Birds Canada and OWL Rehab. Let us know if you have some you'd like to donate, OR you can take yours back and make a donation to our campaign through our fundraising page, OR if you live in BC we set up an express Return-it account. So if you drop them off and use our phone number at the express station, then it will be credited to our account and we'll add the value to our donations to OWL and Birds Canada. Send us a message if you need our phone number.
