SMOKING BLUE JAYS HAVE A SECOND SECRET…..

They Actually Have ZERO Blue Feathers!

While the water vapor coming from the beaks of these North American Blue Jays creates quite an illusion, there’s even greater magic at play here. Did you know that Blue Jays aren’t really blue?

“It’s just a trick of the light,” Birdwatching HQ explains. “Blue Jays (and all blue birds) use a little trick called light scattering. In a very basic nutshell, when visible light strikes the feathers, all of the colors pass through the feather EXCEPT blue. The blue color is reflected, so your eyes will see BLUE.

Animal Rescue Chase

The Great Animal Rescue Chase celebrates the art of animal rescue with a worldwide race to rescue one million. It’s a free event, open to all, and is perhaps the only global animal rescue event aimed at helping any animal in distress, anywhere in the world. Our ambition is to create a culture of enthusiasm and pride in animal activism. We believe in teaching, by example, that there is a hero in each of us just waiting to be unleashed. Empowered animal lovers can not only save lives, but build the momentum for powerful animal welfare reform.
