The house where I grew up had a tree-lined divider down the middle of the street. A baby jay fell from the nest to the street. My dad saw it fall, and went out to move it out of the traffic lane. As he bent over, one of the adult jays dived down and hit him in the head. Hawks do frighten them, though. A few days ago, a hawk landed in a pine tree near my feeders. All of the birds scattered, and a jay started screaming his head off. I frightened the hawk away, and tranquility returned.
