No. Bears are omnivores (that means they eat both meat and veggies) and are actually opportunists more than anything. They dont really hunt much of anything and a Blue Jay would be of little, if any, food value to them. IT would be like you or me eating a single cheerio.
Hope this helps.

I wouldn't be surprised, but it would be rare, at best - you have to ask yourself how the bear would catch the bird; it would be better able to eat one that was already dead, and that's not likely to be something the bear would find very often. I wouldn't put an arrow there; better to put the arrows to things that commonly interact.

Yes sometimes Black Bears do eat meat.
