Screeching calls piercing the ears
Announce a Blue Jay now is near
Sporting feathers black, white and blue
With size to garner the attention he’s due
Glides down onto the tray with grace
Transports a peanut to his secret place
Repeats his visits till all are gone
Checks in again come next dawn
Inspired by Daily Prompt – Relocate
Out of My Write Mind 
Wonderful, Sandy!

So true! I have watched them pick through the peanuts to make sure they have the heaviest one before taking off. 😊

And they want to gather them all up before other birds get a chance!

Great shot, Sandy! 🙂
There are not as many in our area any longer… as Bluejays have been very susceptible — as are crows — to West Nile virus. I hope they continue to rebound better!

We have Stellar Jays. I’ve only seen one Blue Jay so this was a treat.

And we don’t have Stellar Jays. I always enjoy seeing them when we are in Colorado.

I don’t know about Blue Jays, but Stallar Jays are squackers. Noisy and irritating, but pretty to look at lol.
