Bluejay

Saw a bluejay today eating from the main tray!  Likely ate peanut pieces, and/or the cracked corn.

Bluejay visits twice/day, but no sign of anyone else yet

As of the day after I put the feeders back, the bluejay reliably has two visits per day, around 08:30am and 9am or so!  Eats a tiny bit (once swallowed a whole shell/peanut!), then flies away with a peanut/shell.

Blue jay confirmed!

Heard and saw bluejays several times!  (one at a time, maybe the same one)

The peanuts-in-shell and cracked corn have proven to be quite popular!  Having to refill both each day.

The chopped peanuts are also getting eaten, but still have some leftover.

Haven't figured out yet if anyone is eating the Nutri-saff -- haven't had to replenish it yet...

Peanuts and corn eaten! (likely blue jays)

Woo hoo!  Someone discovered the peanuts-with-shells and the cracked corn in the new platform feeder!  I suspect blue jays, as I heard some, but wasn't able to get up to look out of the window.

All of the cracked corn was eaten, and most but not all of the peanuts.  And when I replenished the peanuts, again most of those were eaten.  (Total of ~15 peanuts eaten today)

Replaced the peanuts and cracked corn late this afternoon.

Blue jay pair briefly sat on fence while I was in yard

Argh, of course they had to try stopping by while I was in the yard taking a 30 second break from mowing the grass...   They sat on the fence for maybe 10-15 seconds, then flew away.

Bluejays on fence but I accidentally scared them away :(

Dang, just as I stepped out into the yard, I saw two blujays fly away -- they had been sitting on the fence. No doubt eyeing the bird cake...  I hope they'll forgive me and come back another time to check it out.
