The jay was up in a tree screeching for peanuts so I threw two out the back door and he swopped down from the tree but, before he hit the ground, a squirrel came bounding out of the long grass obviously making a beeline for the peanuts too. The jay hurriedly alighted on the feeder hook and watched, to see which of the peanuts ( about five feet apart) the squirrel headed for, then he dropped down quickly and snatched up the other one.
@ljmanning I wouldn't say they were exactly working together but they do seem to have worked out a peaceful division of the spoils. The squirrel may be bigger but it is the jay's noisy squawking that makes the peanuts appear, so he'd be smart to keep letting him have his share.
