Hi Tweeters,

An adult SCRUB JAY, only the third for Canada, and virtually certainly the
same bird as was present in 1993/94, has been present in S. Vancouver BC
since mid-May, though the people whose feeders it has been visiting did not
know what it was until recently.

The bird is visiting 6065 Collingwood Place, a small cul-de-sac at the S end
of Collingwood St. in the Kerrisdale area. To watch the backyard feeders,
please knock on the door and talk to the home-owners first. Otherwise the
bird can be seen in the front yard about 4 PM when the homeowner tosses out
peanuts for the Steller's Jay and squirrels.

This is only a few blocks from the locale frequented by the jay in its
previous visit.
