Blue jays often get attention for their loud calls and bright blue feathers, but these birds also play a major role in helping our oak forests grow here in Maryland. Every fall, blue jays collect and store thousands of acorns to prepare for winter. Unlike squirrels, blue jays can carry several acorns at once using a special pouch in their throat, and they fly up to 2.5 miles away before burying them. They only return for about 25% of their cache. Those uncollected acorns can sprout into new oak trees. Over time, that behavior helps regenerate forests, support wildlife habitat, stabilize soil, improve water quality, and store carbon. So the next time you hear the familiar call of a blue jay in your neighborhood, remember, you are listening to one of Maryland’s hardest-working tree planters.

🚨 Gov. Spanberger signs bill increasing the punishment for failing to report child abuse. Every no vote came from a Republican.

I'm told they are getting really close to solving the Nancy Guthrie case.

Trump pardoned the Jan 6 attackers on the Capitol. Now he wants to make them millionaires. Don't try to tell me he had nothing to do with provoking the violence of that day.
