Well, I'm from Southern New Hampshire and have Blue Jays in my yard all the time... They seem to get along with all the other birds... I see them frequently eat from the seed droppings with Cardinals, Mourning Doves, Sparrows etc...

Definitely a Green Heron...  I had 3 of these in my yard the last week off July every day...

Thanks so much for your help in identifying this...
