Did You Know?
Steller's jays are noisey campground residents and take advantage of unnatural human food sources. Normally feeding on seeds and nuts, jays also prey on the endangered marbled murrelet and their chicks. Please help to protect the robin-sized murrelet by not sharing your lunch with any wildlife.
