RE: First a solo opera...

Thank you for the support Zeke, and yeah, they are regular sightings here at our home, as they nest here.
I have only seen posts of the blue jays, and did you know that there are also green jays? We read an article that stated a blue jay mated with a green jay to produce a new breed called a grue jay.
