yellow little ducklings are so cute it almost hurts my heart!! the adorableness

A few years ago, my father heard what he thought was a red-tailed hawk–Nnnnnope! Just a juvenile blue jay at the birdbath that wanted some privacy.
No photo of the blue jay in question, but here’s another.

Sometimes the sound they make has tricked me into thinking they were a hawk too

Random story on the topic of blue jays
There was a pair that would regularly come to my bird feeders this year and one had a broken top beak but thankfully it seemed to eat just fine because it kept coming back with their gf/bf to eat the peanuts so i’m glad it was doing well
They would always make their entrance known to the other birds (mostly house sparrows) with their loud squawk lol

Common Grackle

One of the best parts of living on campus: getting the chance to befriend the local pigeons :))
