Humans imitate animals, cause like it or not we are all animals at the end of the day.

Red Bellied Woodpeckers can be VERY VERY nasty once they claim a feeding spot. They will NOT tolerate Blue Jays thinking they can bully there way in. They both have extremely sharp beaks but i think the edge goes to the woodpecker there. Plus, the woodpecker obviously has the advantage having "zygodactyl feet". Which is having two toes facing in the front and two in the back. Where as "perching birds" have 3 toes in the front and 1 in the back.These feet, along with thick talons and stiff tail feathers, are what helps woodpeckers to brace, grip, and climb tree trunks in a vertical position. I have 30yrs experience in the avian field and have worked "hands on" with everything from Warblers to Birds of Prey. And Budgies to Macaws. So i've seen my fair share of encounters between various bird species while out in the field.

Mordecai VS Woody Woodpecker: The fight of the century

@Matt-the-Youtube-user

Yeah. I suppose, Mordecai offended Woody, by marking Woody's signature laugh, as annoying. I can already see a dialogue between those two, like this: Mordecai: Well, well, well, look who's here! Woodpecker with the World's most annoying laugh ever. Woody: What?! What did you say about my laugh, you weird colored bird?! Mordecai: You heard me very well, you head banging birdie. Your laugh is very annoying! Woody: Yeah. Says the blue bird, who gets frequently yelled at by a gumball machine. Mordecai: Hey, It's not my fault, he's sometimes a big dork! Also haven't you been threatened to be k¤lled by many people? Woody: Don't remind me of that! Also, about k¤lling. I'm surprised, your raccoon friend didn't shred you already. Raccoons can be vicious. Mordecai: *loses his temper* WHAT?! HOW DARE YOU CALL RIGBY VIOLENT?! GET OVER HERE YOU INTO-WOOD-HEAD-SMACKING BIRD, I'LL PECK YOUR EYES OUT!!! Woody: I'LL PECK YOURS OUT TOO, YOU BLUE COLRED BIRD SLACKER!!! Mordecai and Woody: *have a very intense brawl* Now it's up to you to write, how would Benson (gumball machine) react, when he spots Mordecai and Woody fighting each other.

I love the end outcome despite all the showboating. The woodpecker flies off to eat in peace; the Blue Jay keeps watch and gets his peanut 🥜

Taking on a dude who literally smacks his face into wood on a regular basis. Silly Blue Jay.

I don’t believe crows can but I have seen woodpeckers run off bluejays on occasion.

As a kid my mom told me a story about feeding birds. She threw out a bunch of stale bread in the side yard and was watched as dozens of robins were chased off by a few black birds. Then she watched as those black birds got chased off by a single blue jay. It's fun to see that something can push back against jays.

Don't fight kitties, there's enough food for both of you! Meow

Yeah these birds are always fighting in my yard haha

The other birds don't seem to fight but these two. Almost all the time. Why are blue jay and red bellied woodpecker so aggressive toward each other? Even their plume colours are opposite too! The woodpecker lowers down its body and seems scared of the jay, which seems to avoid the trouble and fly away

Me when my husband want a bite of my dessert

Moral of the story; if you just bide your time, you'll get your peanut in the end.

In the end, they both got what they wanted 🤣

The way you stop that is to just add more peanuts in the shell, the jays will quickly go for that and take off. I have seen that with my own feedings, and this vid ends that way. It's kinda funny how they will pick up one peanut, put it down and repeat as if they are haggling for the best deal. I feed them un-salted but roasted, I don't think they care if they are raw or roasted but definitely do not give them salted.

@konstantyk.3320

I totally agree and do the same thing @my feeders .... The jays covet the peanuts (yes, unsalted, roasted) .. I put bunches of them in the feeder and toss them as well; the jays "dive-bomb" for the peanuts and fly off happily, leaving more time at the feeder for other birds.

All the Blue Jay wanted was the peanut lol
