Blue Jay Day

It's
Blue Jay Day
at Brixton Lane.

The pond
is frozen.

TJ is going
sledding.

Helen
ventures out
to tackle
the honeysuckle.

Tom sweeps
the back porch...

....and takes
his kitty
for a walk.

- I want down!

- Oooo! Maybe that
wasn't a good idea!

While Dusty
is playing in the snow...

...Stubby gets
to play with
Dusty's favorite toy!

- Let me in!

Finally the cats
are settled in.

...and it's time
for Tom
to watch the birds.

You know,
we enjoy
our cardinals...

and the
silly nuthatch...

Is that a
brown creeper?

But the great drama
of the feeder world
is with
the blue jays.

They sneak in
for peanuts.

Gobble
them
down.

They battle
with
starlings.

Sometimes...

there is romance.







Do you think

he knows?

-

Did you hear something?!

- He caught us!

- Fly away!

Tom doesn't need

to watch tv.

He gets enough

entertainment...

...at the bird feeder.
