First Blue Jay, 2007
Today I saw my first blue jay of the 2007 season. I was standing outside the building in which my studio resides, watching the cottonwood seeds drift, thinking about how they look the perfect model of fairie movement and wishing I had the motivation to get a video recorder to catch that movement for reference material when the jay alighted on roof jutting out from where I stood and then alighted on the asphalt, near the edge of the grass, pecked at something in the grass, and flittered on beyond my field of view, around the corner to a tree perhaps by the mailbox and was gone. Gone for now.
