Hi Dennis &Tweeters,
We had two Scrub-jays on September the first flying over our house low,it
looked as if there maybe landing on a tall fir tree,but flying in direction
Point Defiance.This is the first Scrub-Jay here in our area.
I enjoying my Anna's Hummingbirds coming to the feeder now more often.We
have one Adult male two immature males and one female.there could be more.Is
time to put the suet out soon.

Cheers Ruth Sullivan
Tacoma
