We came across the "sentinel" of the group perched on the wire not too far from the trees and bushes that we'd heard about and were looking for. |
Soon after another Jay landed within the vicinity of the tree. |
And another. I went back to the car to get my husband - so that he could see the beautiful jays. |
I was thrilled to see those birds so close and so pretty. |
I walked around a nearby area that was filled with wildflowers - also wanting to catch a closer look of the meadowlark that I had spotted entering the thick and dense shrubby area, but no luck there. |
On my way back, I saw another Shrike - one of many that I had seen on this day. At last it was time to wrap it up - the Scrub Jays had retreated to their thickets and it was time to do the same. |
