[edit] Nest building
I've found slightly conflicting information about nest building duties by the sexes in the Petersen guides vs the Audubon books. Any correction or clarification is welcome. DDugan 03:32, 9 April 2006 (UTC)
On Feb. 27, 2007 I observed a group of California Scrub Jays goading on a pair of jays whose sex I could not determine in what only could be described as a tussle. They were on a hill. Rolling on eachother for a period of at least 10 minutes. They could have been mating or fighting, it was unclear. They rolled over each other, through a fence, down a stone wall of 4 ft, and across a lawn, making so much noise that I had to inhibit them. Is there someone out there who has observed similar behavior?
