[Tweeters] Port Townsend BLJA

[Deborah Stewart]

I walked the neighborhood around H Street and Rose. After about 15 minutes walking north on Rose where I was seeing several STJAs I saw a lighter colored Corvid fly over heading back south. It landed in a fir tree on H Street between Rose and Willow and immediately gave itself away with vocalizations. By the time I got over there it had flown across the street into a deciduous tree void of leaves and I got nice looks. Some homeowners came out to see it as they heard it as well and informed me that an owl had struck a window at their neighbors house and had flown into the fir tree across the street. Hence the BLJA and STJA squawks. I located the BAOW who seemed alert and not seriously injured being periodically mobbed by the Jays and other birds. The BLJA seemed to be part of a STJA gang as I saw it consistently in the crowd. Time of observations 9:45 to 10:00 AM Sunday Dec 5.
