3:37 AM – An unscheduled Retro Monday.

Here’s a gang of Blue Jays from 9.7.2017:

Sometimes Blue Jays squabble, and sometimes they seem to get along alright. Watch this small gang of Jays go for a pile of fresh seed. Then watch them get dispersed by one Mourning Dove. The Jays keep coming back – but the camera battery ran out of juice before the matter was settled. I suspect it never gets settled, this kind of thing just goes on all day. Notice that there’s still a little Summer Molting going on.

From 8.11.2017, a couple of juvenile Bluebirds, with patchy, striped markings.
