What's all that squawking?There are lots of types of noisy neighbors, both human and wildlife. If it sounds like a bird, it could be a Steller's Jay.

This ubiquitous bird can be found in forests, parks, and backyards throughout the region. They are often busy looking for food bouncing around the ground and flying into low tree branches.
