Doorbell Camera Captures Clever Bird's "Ding Dong Ditch" Prank

Doorbell Camera Captures Clever Bird's "Ding Dong Ditch" Prank
A clever blue jay got the best of a homeowner when he played a classic "ding dong ditch" prank on the home.
The home's security doorbell camera captured the hilarious moment, and in the clip, you can see the blue jay hopping up to the doorbell, rather curious looking.

Just looking at the doorbell isn't enough for this mischievous bird, though, and it's not long before he's pecking at the button and causing the bell to ring!
As soon as the doorbell rings, the bluejay takes off into the sky. Moments later, you can see the homeowner emerge. He looks rather confused as he peeks around, looking to see who pressed the doorbell.

RM videos shared the video, writing:
"This bluejay was so intrigued by the doorbell that it repeatedly pecked at it until it made a loud sound that startled the bird. Following this, it quickly flew away. However, the bluejay was not the only one surprised, when the owner came out to check who rang the bell they were also equally puzzled at finding no one there."

It's really something else!
You can see the hilarious moment unfold for yourself in the video below:

What a clever bird.
