While traveling thru inland waters of Florida, I frequently saw these self-assured birds perched on some elevated outlook — twig, roofridge or chimney. One lit on the sloop's crosstrees and expressed his opinion of our intrusion in no uncertain terms. They are even more talkative than Blue Jays and one spoke steadily for ten minutes from a short flagpole near New Smyrna. There may have been some question as to what it all meant but none whatever as to its noise.
Florida, mostly in scruboak belts.
