With the flurry of posts yesterday, I forgot to add this one of last night’s quick sunset.

Piñon Jays in the snow!

They’re back in force after last night’s snow. They also seem to be in greater numbers. Not only at our feeder but in the trees. And then they all take off on cue; very much like the snow geese at the Bosque. They fly off in one great flock that moves in unison and caws noisily. I counted 136 birds in the flock that left our house.

Snow 2_17_22

3 to 4 inches and most has already melted away. Hoping for more or it’ll be a very dry Spring.

Snow Jays 2_3_21

While tromping around in the sub-freezing temps and 2 or 3 inches of snow we collected… I watched a band of Piñon Jays fly from the other side of the greenbelt, around and over the house and land on our Piñon tree (of course). I always enjoy watching their ruckus… they really make the Winter months less glum.
