Nice shot, Fred.
These are one of my favorite bird species. Locally, their population took
quite a hit when West Nile Virus appeared on the scene a few year ago. 5
years ago I used to leave in the morning to be met by a dozen jays awaiting
their morning peanuts. two yeas ago it was a treat to see a jay at all,
these days they seem to be rebounding and a handful might be on hand on any
given morning.
Sorry for the ramble - some day in the future the jays may be looking at our
empty houses and saying "I remember when there used to be people down
there...."
Again - nice shot!
