pines with good nuts in them, maybe. I don't see as many Stellar Jays as I used to... Not in Idaho anymore but over at the edge of the Pallouse was where those eastern jays were in my trees, pretty low elevation area for Idaho, I couldn't live there because of it. I'm a high elevation dweller, 5500ft+!

Another bird that mates for life. They also take care of their young for the whole summer. shraby Jul 2018 #11

Explains the bird bath squabbles from them. :) Solly Mack Jul 2018 #12

We had a few in the spring, and I was thrilled. cwydro Aug 2018 #13

I had to get them dried fruit and nuts to keep them coming back Solly Mack Sep 2018 #15

I have Scrub Jay that will take peanuts from my hand. It is so beautiful that I don't mind Glimmer of Hope Sep 2018 #14

I love the noise they make. I hear it & go running to see how many have stopped by to eat. Solly Mack Sep 2018 #16

Ha! I can always hear them coming. My scrub is so sweet and always looks so excited when I show it Glimmer of Hope Sep 2018 #17
