You must put out some good food to generate that kind of contention. Nice shots!

I'm curious as to what food that both a robin and a blue jay would scrap over. What was in the feeder?

I too am curious why the Robin was contesting a bird feeder. Unless there were “ mealy worms “ or at least fruit these birds are not seen in feeders. I think this is likely a territorial squabble with the Robins nesting site nearby. That would cause the Robin to attempt to protect it from any intruder on his home turf. The Jay, being as usual a loud bully would probably raise any other birds hackles just by being hearby. Even though the Blue Jay is a member of the Crow family he is not known as a predator of other birds nests so it’s highly unlikely that he would damage the Robins property.
Anyways, excellent live action shots of your back yard friends.

Everybody is curious about my bird feed. Throug experionce I've learned a secret. I use 4 different kinds. Raw peanut, black oil sunflower seeds, mealworms, and a fruit and nut mix. I call it my Buck's Breakfast buffet! I get at least 9 varieties from this mix.

All mixed together?? 4 separate feeders? Various mixes in various feeders?
