Busy as a Bird

Rock and dirt divider between two driveways made
spectacular by the Jays.  Not a drop of added water for
all that splendor!






Everyone knows bees are busy.  And ants are legendary for being industrious.












No shyness is this sunny head.  









But I've never thought of Scrub Jays as anything but noisy, though I acknowledge their smartly attractive bright blue plumage. Now I'm having second thoughts (even as a Jay takes a raucously noisy splash in the bird bath).






The most attractive and glorious points of interest in our whole yard this summer are what the Jays planted for me.

One of these plants had over 20 sunny flowers on it.  Now the heads are hanging heavy with seed.

  1. Those sunflowers are amazing! One looks sleepy as she hangs her head, and must be taking a nap!
    What a show they gave you! Those scrub jays were smart- when they planned where to plant the seeds! They wanted to make you smile!
