I am a most favorite fella!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Noted I have a pair of blue jays nesting up in our
big maple tree.

Life is good.

They don't like being bothered. I had a blue jay nest in a small cedar on my
property this year. She hatched 4 eggs and raised them. I took some pictures one
day, then went back with the pruning shears and cut some branches around the
nest so I could get some better pictures. The mother bird was not happy with my
activity. Within a few days she and the babies had flown away.
