Question by Nathan: What is the purpose of a blue jay’s color and feathers?
What does the blue jays color or wing specifically help it do?

Best answer:

Answer by Stephane
Is this a serious question or a Troll’s?

Wings are mainly and obviously for flying purpose!

As for the color, Blue jays are really grey but the light shining through their feathers will show blue, just like the sky is not really blue but, looking through the atmosphere, light makes it look blue.

Most of the time, bright colors indicate a healthy bird but, for Blue Jays, it might be a bit different, I couldn’t tell for sure
