Thurston ππ©΅π€π€ β her tuft is growing in nicely.
I have a feeling Thurston has been a bit self conscious about her head feathers that are starting to grow back. ππ©΅π€π¦β¨π
Thurston (β) has a very pretty voice. π΅π΅π¦ππ©΅π€
Did you know bluejays replace all the head feathers every year? This is my friend, Thurston, in vulture phase. ππ₯°π€π©΅ππ¦ππ

Hover Thurston. πππ¦π
Thurstonβs kids are here! π₯°ππ¦π¦π¦ They must be hungry, they come closer than before. ππ
Thurston doesnβt take nuts from my hand, but comes very close. Sheβs seen me handing out nuts to squirrels over the years. Clever bird.
Here she is, taking two almonds (dry-roasted, unsalted) off the railing right next to where I am standing.
Hallo Thurston π€π©΅ππ¦
(She comes to wait there to be served some yummy nuts everyday π₯°)
One of TheThurstons*. The bird didnβt seem to mind at all when I stepped out to take a pic. π
* #ThurstonBluejay has been coming here for over a decade. She has a big family now.

Thurston!!! ππποΈβ¨
#ThurstonBluejay β sheβs been a regular here for many years. Now a family of bluejays. They shoo off hawks to keep the the area safe. I love having them around.
Hahaβ¦ #ThurstonBluejay came to the honeylocust branch to peek through the window upstairs to get me to come down stairs to feed them?! ππποΈβ¨
(I did :)
My wildlife friends love the nut butter oat balls! π₯°π
