Here's one for Solly Mack

This is a Steller's jay. We had three of them in our feeder yesterday morning, which is kind of unusual. I was glad my camera and long lens were handy. I think these guys are so cute.

The birds are in and out of here so fast.

I'm still kicking myself for not getting a shot of those pine grosbeaks a couple of years ago. I haven't seen one since.

I think they're prettier than Blue Jays.

I have lots of doves this fall. (Eurasian collared, Inca, Mourning, White-winged) They have taken over my yard.
