摘要: Pinon Jays live year round in a social flock that may number from 50 to 300 birds. Young birds form into creches immediately after leaving the nest. Begging calls are important formation of creches. In these young interact with each other and their parents. This study was designed 1. gain an understanding parent-young relationships, 2. investigate operation creche, 3. determine relationship jays cohorts flock.
