What is a Moosebird anyway?
Lumberjacks of the past would call the grey Canadian Jay a “Moosebird” as these lovable birds would be seen riding on the antlers of moose in the woods causing the lumberjacks to take notice of them. A Moosebird is a friendly northern bird that welcomes and enjoys the company of others. Sometimes called a camp robber, the Canadian Jay will actually eat out of your hand. So stop by Moosebirds where every birdie is welcome, and keep an eye out for one of our namesakes… real or imaginary.
