Green is my favorite color, so of course I LOVE the look of this bird.

When I lived in Pacific Grove, CA, I had an apartment with a balcony like that.
Not only would the bluejays come to my balcony for peanuts, I could actually
get them to take peanuts from my hand if I stood pretty still.

I loved it!!

Any "relationships" I've had with wild animals in my past made me feel blessed.

I did no such thing!!! I do not recall how it is the Bug Thread became separated from the Critter Cafe, but I am quite sure that I did not ban bug posts.

He's the one who created the bug thread.

I didn't create the bug thread to ban them from here, I did it because they were cropping up in all kinds of other threads and I wanted to consolidate them all in one place, where those who so choose could ignore them. Sometimes I wish I would ignore them, but I feel a sort of loyalty to my own thread.

I vaguely remember that song. It must have been on The White Album. There
were a lot of odd songs on that album.

I thought it was because people who didn't want to see certain bugs (i.e. spiders)
wouldn't see them in this thread.

Found it!

This is one of the bluejays that would eat peanuts on my balcony in Pacific Grove,
California. They just couldn't figure out why that second peanut was so hard to
get!

I feed peanuts to the bluejays, crows and ravens who visit my backyard. The bluejays tend to fly away with one peanut at a time. The average crow or raven will swallow a whole peanut (in the shell!!!) and then take one or two more in his/her beak before flying away. I suspect all three species of birds cache the nuts to eat them later.
