Baby blue jays and angry chipmunks
We have started to see some baby blue jays in the garden now. They are so funny as they tend to be bald around the neck and head for a while before they get their full feathers. This is a couple who were outside yesterday.
Also the other morning we were late putting out the feeders. When this happens we see a lot of birds hanging around in the trees waiting. Also the squirrels and chipmunks tend to come up onto the deck as if to ask when are we going to feed them.
This particular morning a chipmunk sat on top of the deck post and seemed to be scowling at us. He seemed pretty angry that he was being kept waiting for his breakfast.
Also, we now have a family of hummingbirds. One of the pairs now has babies who are using our feeders. Last night four of them were outside the window together. Trouble was I watched them for several minutes, but as soon as I got the camera out they vanished. They are obviously camera shy. But I will keep trying.
