"Be very, very quiet." "Why's that Mr Jay?" "I'm listening." "What are you listening for, Mr Jay?" "I'm listening for Vorms." "Vorms? Oh.. worms. What do vorms sound like?" "They sound..... tasty. Very tasty."
I love to watch the birds as they listen and grab the worm. I'm wondering if this is a male or female and the difference in color. Lovely capture and I liked your commentary. (Carletta's Captures)

ReplyDeletesuch a neat photo!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful captures :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful bird .. the blue is quite striking. (How do they know where the vorms (!!) are?)
ReplyDeleteIt's always a treat when a jay visits. Hope he left enough for the blackbirds and thrushes ;-)
ReplyDeleteFunny :)
ReplyDeleteGreat capture of this beautiful bird!
Pretty bird, he was listening very intently, hope he was rewarded by finding a nice big fat worm.
ReplyDeleteVery nice shots. I love the bit of blue on the forewing--it's so interesting to see birds from other countries. Have a happy weekend.
ReplyDeleteGood capture--nice image with good color.
ReplyDeleteMichael: Your Jays are so different then ours. I wonder if they are as noisy.
ReplyDeleteLove the patterned blue markings on the wings of this bird! Beautiful photos!
ReplyDeleteI love to watch the birds as they listen and grab the worm.
ReplyDeleteI'm wondering if this is a male or female and the difference in color.
Lovely capture and I liked your commentary.
