Have jQuery return text rather than HTMLScriptElement

Question

I am trying to make a script that counts how many external scripts I have on my site.

$( document ).ready(function() {
    $tags = $("script[src*='http']");
    $.each($tags, function(index, value) { console.log("INDEX: " + index + " VALUE: " + value ); });
});

Index is working as intented, but the value that is printed to the console is [object HTMLScriptElement]. How can I modify my script to print the value for src attribute?

I already tried these two changes:

From $("script[src*='http']") to $("script[src*='http']").attr('src')
From value to value.toString()

use $(value).attr("src") or value.src to get src attribute of script tag, change to:

...
$.each($tags, function(index, value) { 
    console.log("INDEX: " + index + " VALUE: " + $(value).attr("src") ); 
    //OR
    console.log("INDEX: " + index + " VALUE: " + value.src ); 
});
...

Try like this

$( document ).ready(function() {
$tags = $("script[src]");
$.each($tags, function(index, value) { console.log("INDEX: " + index + " VALUE: " + value  ); });
});
