Blue Jays can be troublesome because of their habit of scratching the
feeder trough and scattering as many seeds as possible on the ground. I
have adjusted the springs on the trough cover so that it closes under
the full weight of birds as large as a Blue Jay. This guy has learned
that, if he carries a part of his weight with his wings, the trough
stays open. He can be seen making repeated trips, fluttering to access
the trough, and flying away with a mouth full of seeds.
