Title: Humming Bird a Flycatcher and lots of Jays..Milton
Post by: Napper on September 16, 2022, 11:15:47 AM

Yesterday around 9:30 am I observed a Humming Bird visiting our remaining flowers on our Plox and Rose of Sharon bushes. A few minutes later I spotted a Flycatcher on the fence and proceed to view it for a view minutes feeding in our apple tree. I wasn't able to i.d. the bird , it had a light coloured breast.
A very large flight of Jays flew past heading a Westerly direction.

It pains me to correct you but...it's a PARTY or BAND of blue jays....I frankly prefer PARTY....

Heck, what's a party without a band? Where there is a band there's a party. Now, really, a bunch of blue jays would constitute a game! A win would demand a party and we could then just hire a band and the band would insist on beer. I suddenly don't feel so good ... hiccup.
