Today was a great day, out back. A great day that is, if you like Blue Jays. They were everywhere! Well, at least it seemed like it. They flew in almost immediately after the seed hit the feeder. The Red Bellied Woodpecker made a brief appearance also, but it was mostly a Blue Jay day.
I believe that there's nothing more refreshing than hearing a baby bird calling for it's parent, looking for food. Though it's nothing close to a melodic melody, the want and desire demonstrated by the loud and continual calling, chortling and chipping, conjures up, (for me) and total desire for food and a bird that will do well in the world. This is the sound I put with the beginning of spring.Here is the cutest baby that I saw today. Like I said, it seemed they were everywhere! Mom and Dad were never very far away and it looks like in a few days he will be on his own. I hope he sticks around. He already has a personality.
