We have a very special blue jay living here. If we're not careful, the human will have it named before long. The little bird has an injured wing.

It can't fly. That only slows it down a little bit. It goes all the way to the ground and back up into the top of the magnolia tree by little hops.

It wraps those toes around the fence. It jumps down to the post and walks across the well house.

Then it's another short hop up into the magnolia tree.

The little bird gets around in the tree the same way.




Jay (oops, did I just name the bird?) has been around here injured like this for about three weeks. We just hope Jay is able to avoid this...
