Blue Jay Meets Banana - Makes Monkey Sounds

  • Blue Jay gets very excited upon seeing a ripe banana for the first time making a variety of calls including a pretty good monkey impersonation. I've heard that call before, but never so close and on film. At first the Jay picks at the seeds and is unsure it likes the actual banana, but within a few minutes its feasting on it.

    I never heard a jay make a warbling sound like that before. The rest, yeah I have. Territorial calls, and maybe a mating song or two. This fellow is very talented and has taken a fancy to more than a few songs in his life.

    I didn’t know they liked bananas. I’ll have to try that one as I’m out of peanuts and their not happy about it. I swear they start yelling at me when they see me and there isn’t any peanuts out for them. I love the Bluejay sounds.

      I don't think the Blue Jay knew either till it accidentally ate bits of it while grabbing the seeds. It seemed to grow on it till it really dug in to the banana proper at the end.

    This Blue Jay could be imitating a Cooper’s Hawk, which makes that exact, same monkey-like sound. Either way, this Jay does sound like a monkey, and it’s funny how this Jay is doing it while eating a banana. 🍌🐒🐵 Also love the Cardinal in the background. Thanks for sharing, MBB! 🤗❤🐦

    Funny thing about these kind of videos; when the bird leaves, I think it's over, and I start looking for another video to watch. Then I'm confused for a second when the bird comes back, before I realize I'm just watching random bird footage and not a scripted movie
