- Happy Blue Jay with a snack :) Maybe if we give the Blue Jays enough peanuts, they'll bring home the World Series for us ;) 🪶 #birds
- Two happy Blue Jays in one shot, even if one is kind of blurry :P 🪶 #birds
- This Blue Jay sure worked for their prize :P 🪶 #birds
- This #chipmunk xD
- This chonky cardinal is looking ready for winter already, but coming back for more seeds xD 🪶 #birds
- Another picture of one of the local Blue Jays about to fly away with a prize :) 🪶 #birds
- Along with a Grackle and a few chipmunks that kept stealing peanuts from the Blue Jays when they dropped them, we had a Robin visitor a couple of days ago, too :) 🪶 #birds
- I've been really enjoying having the Blue Jays visiting my feeder :) This shot turned out really well, I think 🪶 #birds
- Sad #squirrel can't get to the peanuts :P
- A few Blue Jays struggled with this last peanut and gave up, but one eventually got it :) 🪶 #birds
- Mourning Dove looking for seeds in the grass :) #birds
- It almost looks in the first one that the Blue Jay is saying "Thank you, human!" :P 🪶 #birds
- Poor Cardinal got scared away from the platform feeder by the noisy Blue Jays :( 🪶 #birds
- I love shots of birds with their wings spread like this <3 🪶 #birds
- This Mourning Dove looks darker than the rest of them around here usually do. I googled it, and apparently they don't have any sort of Winter plumage, so either this one's just darker brown than the rest, or the feathers have gotten dirty. 🪶 #birds
- This sneaky Mourning Dove is watching to see if it's safe to come out for seeds :) 🪶 #birds
- I really like this Mourning Dove photo :) 🪶 #birds
- Poor Cardinal wants to get some safflower seeds, but the mean old Mourning Doves are being territorial, and scared her away :( 🪶 #birds
- A Blue Jay struggling to pull a peanut out of the feeder, then flying away with its prize :) 🪶 #birds
- Young Mourning Dove enjoying the safflower seed buffet :) 🪶 #birds
- Birb! Mourning Dove looking for seeds :) 🪶 #birds
- This female Northern Cardinal looks pretty unimpressed :P 🪶 #birds
- It's been a little while since I've seen any Robins around, but we had one visit recently :) Took a short break on the fence. 🪶 #birds
- Sneaky Blue Jay hiding behind the wreath as it steals a peanut, then flies away :P 🪶 #birds
- This Grackle giving me a funny look before grabbing a peanut and running off :P 🪶 #birds
- This Grackle looks kind of pissed xD 🪶 #birds
- Got a few more Blue Jay pictures :) They tried to deny me all weekend, and they're still being really skittish, but at least I got something :) 🪶 #birds
- Three Mourning Doves, all after my safflower platform feeder x3 🪶 #birds
- A few Starlings hanging out on a tree nearby :) I love seeing them. 🪶 #birds
- More squabbles between Mourning Doves, vying for the feeder :P Doesn't matter that I scattered seeds in the grass too, they want the feeder. 🪶 #birds
- A Starling joined the Mourning Doves today :) 🪶 #birds
- The Mourning Doves have been fighting over the feeder, lately :O It's apparently uncommon for them to really fight, but they do get territorial and try to scare others away from their seeds, sometimes. 🪶 #birds
- Mourning Dove lands on our bird pole, then looks offended that the bird house would dare exist so close to them :P
- I thought this was one bird at first, and was very confused about what bird has a body that size, and a beak that colour :P Female Norther Cardinal hiding behind a Mourning Dove. 🪶 #birds
- Cautious #squirrel coming out of hiding, searching for peanuts :)
- Finally caught a Blue Jay this weekend! They've been teasing me, disappearing any time I have my camera handy. Apparently this is a young one, still growing into its adult plumage. 🪶 #birds
- Funny pose by a Mourning Dove that I think was waiting for me to leave :P 🪶 #birds
- House Sparrow hopping from our fence towards a shepherd's hook :) 🪶 #birds
- Common Grackle in the rain, sitting on the neighbor's shed. 🪶 #birds
- Mourning Dove swooping down to get some seeds :) 🪶 #birds
