Blue Jay Enjoying the Peanuts

The blue jays have been non stop at the deck feeder. They love these peanuts. A male and female cardinal have visited as well. This one looked straight at the camera. I was behind the glass doors with the camera on the tripod. I told him to say cheese but he had his mouth full. Have a good evening everyone.

“Caught!” My squirrels don’t care, they’ll pick up a second peanut and fill their full mouths even fuller!

Caught red handed is what i thought. These can put three in their mouths. Amazing.

Both Blue Jays and Cardinals are voracious peanut eaters. They can't wait for me to put some out for them...

Blue jays are like raccoons with wings. I think he's saying "Yes? May I help you?"
