Just found out that this little bitch bird is killing all the other small birds that lived for years on the trees next to our house.

I noticed lately that the usual birds sounds are gone for the past three weeks, it appears this fucker is killing them

    i’m guessing a Eurasian Jay from a subspecies that has a black crown & also is photographed from above? (there seems to be more than 1 & i don’t know this species well enough to get closer on the subspecies…)

    did I win???

        bird probably has a nest nearby and is hyper aggressive until the little ones fledge

        i think you just got to wait it out

        when i had Blue Jays (the American kind) nest in my yard i just wore a special hat with lots of metal on it to keep them from hitting me on the head but the smaller birds could take care of themselves because they’re more maneuverable-- i think your smaller birds will come back when the Jays finish
