BEAUTIFUL SCRUB JAY


I tried to do a haiku and it escapes me.

Haikus welcome.  I'll put them on my post.

We use to have many scrub jays visit the yard.

Only Stellars' jay come by now.

So is this a recent photo or an older one? It is a pretty bird. Why don't they come around anymore? I'm not sure I understand Haiku's, how they work.

this is older - they are here in the mountains and i've been them in our yard every once in awhile but rarely. in alta loma they were our main bird visitor.

I think all your scrub jay's came here or at least for a little while. They used to stick around longer, but I think the early fall pushed them on.

Great picture!

I have never seen a scrub or stellar jay. I love seeing yours. Are they as loud as our blue jays?

Sometimes I use the 5/7/5 form of haiku
sometimes I stray

Hi sandy - yes they are loud with a kind of raspy squawk...
