This is me with my fingers in my ears singing LA LA LA at the top of my lungs to drown out the incessant media coverage/speculation about the election. At this point, I don't want to know anything about it until it's settled. I just can't handle the stress.
So, in the meantime have something pretty to look at - this handsome bird is a Stellar's Jay (Rocky Mountain form).
Just this weekend a pair of Stellars made themselves at home in my yard- it's the first time I have seen any in my yard. They usually prefer to live higher up on the slopes. I guess this year's drought and fires have taken their toll on the food supplies in their normal range- which probably also accounts for my recent sighting of a Red-naped Sapsucker, also not a usual denizen of my area. I'm happy to have them, though! As opposed to the bear. ;'D
A few more Stellars pix are available on my Flickr stream.
