Fun to watch the Jays pick up each peanut, one by one, to seemingly weight them for the perfect shell to carry away. Once they judge them all they fly off to a close branch and break into it and feed. The squirrels have been raiding them first lately but the Jays are finally back in charge.
The White-winged Doves are still around. Longest for my personal records.
Still a ton of squirrel shots to wade through but every now and then there is a particularly cute one.
One other shot of note: We now have a new Mourning Dove in the yard. Though just a back shot, it confirms a young bird.
Young Mourning Doves have tan edges to their feathers that smooth out as they age. Nice to see that some doves have been successful with breeding this year.
