Mom and her hungry baby.
Mama blue jay has been a regular visitor to my balcony for about four or five years now. When her young ones are able to fly she brings them over for a meal of peanuts and a drink of water. Her "twins" from a few years back still make frequent visits and seem to be inseparable...when one shows up the other is right behind.
I really enjoy them coming 'round and their various antics. They're an endless source of entertainment and joy.
A baby is a big responsibility.
This one is only about three months old.

Neat! We don't seem to have many blue jay around my house. I do have a sparrow (I think) family with babies in one of my bird houses.
