Hi Tweets

We also made the cruise north to see the Blue Jay. Took about 15 minutes
(probably because the rain had just stopped most of the Stellaer's Jays
were a little buried in the trees. Close to a dozen of them! As they
started to move around, we heard the Blue Jay call and it made its
appearance and posed proudly.

One of the neighborhood ladies came out on her deck and asked if we were
able to see the Bluebird. Another coming back from shopping sounded very
proud to have such an interesting bird feeding in her backyard! Very
cheerful group and it seems that birding etiquette is being observed and
they are not annoyed with us gawking through binos and scopes around their
homes.

Thank you, Fred Bird, your directions to the locale were excellent.

Elaine gets to tick another "Lifer"!!
