Crows showed up today to have a few peanuts at the deck feeder. Only a few came, about three or four. Not the big flocks they usual come in.
The blue jays leave when the crows visit. But they didn't stay around too long.
The peanuts were almost gone. And I didn't fill the feeder up for them. I let them get a few, watched them leave, then filled it back up for the cardinals and blue jays.
Snapped this photo of two on the deck and one at the bird bath. I edited my photo to show you what I thought they were thinking. Having a little fun. A nice day here today.

@CarolDM We had a big problem with them in the region that we used to live in. They are very territorial and had their patterns of where they would fly to during the course of the day. They knew what neighbourhoods had garbage pick ups on what days, it was amazing.

You made me laugh, crows are absolutely selfish birds! LOL Sharing? Nope, they take care of #1.

@RebeccasFarm The jays fly off into the trees but they come right back.

Hee hee. Good caption!!! 
I haven't had a lot of birds here in the past few days; however, coming home I saw a mess o' birds gathered on a business's lawn, like they were there to try out for a remake of The Birds or something.

one of the coolest things about them is you can leave shiny things (bits of foil) and they will be happy with that!

@DocAndersen I never see ravens. I know they are both intelligent birds.
