Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Blue

And after the Red-Bellied Woodpecker flew off to do other things, the Blue Jays came back and I took some more pictures! These are beautiful birds. Rather sinister and they destroy the nests of other birds and eat their eggs.  But as blue as a bird gets, Blue Jays are. Blue, I mean.

Welcome Blue Jay!
“Okay, then. I’ll be flying a bit. See you around the woods,” says Jay.
A rather menacing Blue Jay!
Big Blue Jay
Handsome Blue Jay
Hungry bird
Beautiful feather design!

Memories of summertime along the river. And now that autumn is ending, the next color will be white!

Look! Up in he sky! It’s a … car? An old one?

Out here in the country, I don’t feel as surrounded by internal combustion vehicles as I did in the cities in which i lived: New York, Jerusalem, and Boston. I feel safer crossing the street, safer breathing the air.

Most of the world lives in much more densely populated quarters. I often wonder if any of them remember breathing air that wasn’t at least just a teensy weensy bit polluted.
