I was outside of my Work on Sunday afternoon,
working on my NetBook when I heard a strange bird call. I went inside to
get my camera & bird lens but by then whatever bird was calling had
left. A little disappointed I decided to shoot a few photos of the
Sparrows & Finches around the Bird Feeder when my little friendly Scrub
Jay showed up & wanted Peanuts. Usually he will come & get about 6
peanuts out of my hands and hide them around the yard & then fly off.
His mate has never fed out of my hand but will fly to the fence & turn
it's back on me as a way of saying, "This bird doesn't do the hand
feeding thing!" so I'll toss it a peanut & it will swoop down & take it.
Well after about 9 peanuts each, I didn't see them anymore so I figured
they flew off as usual so I went back to work on my NetBook. About
3 minutes later, much to my shock, the friendly Scrub Jay perched on the
upright screen on my NetBook. I tried to get a photo but all I had was
my long bird lens so no luck. I gave it a peanut & went in to switch out
my lens for a shot one in hopes of catching it on my NetBook again but
no luck, it landed everywhere but on my NetBook. Oh well, maybe another
day. |
