Our jays here are the Stellar's Jay and Canada Jay. Totally different looking birds from the Blue Jay. The Canada will take food from your hand. That doe looks the worse for wear. Having twins was hard on her. Wonder if she is an older doe. |

Doubt if she will make another winter. Bird pics are okay...doesn't say when they were photographed. If current then we are in for a long winter as they don't show around here this early. ===== |

They are nicknamed camp robber birds because they are opportunists who keep to the woods. If you go hiking or camping they will follow you for leavings and if you are quiet and still and hold out your hand with some food, they will come and light briefly on your fingers and take the food from your hand. It's pretty magical. They have become very people wise in the national forests around here. |

A couple days ago... that doe is doing fine, she's a little more than a year old... she looks that way because it was getting dark and was difficult to get a capture... does won't bring their fawns out until dusk... flash won't work through a window and there are no street lights here. |

I almost never see them on or near my property, but "see" seems to be the operative word. One day when I was crunching through the snow, they bounded through the woods in a panic. If I hadn't seen some motion out of the corner of my eye, I would never have known they were there. I also have seen them in the trees by the side of the road at or just past dusk. I don't like the fact that they are so unnoticeable there, but, in general, it is good that they are so camouflaged. |

A day doesn't pass I don't see lots of deer here, often I look up and they are staring at me through my window, I take most deer pictures through my windows: http://i61.tinypic.com/241rtyp.jpg http://i59.tinypic.com/21dfqed.jpg http://i59.tinypic.com/20atjpe.jpg A few days ago these twins were right outside my window: http://i60.tinypic.com/2lse6ht.jpg >I also have seen them in the trees by the side of the road at or just >past dusk.

I try not to drive here at dusk or dawn, deer can be standing right in the middle of the road and they are difficult to see, head on or from the rear they offer a very slim profile. |

I am careful, but I do worry about not seeing one someday. A few years ago, a deer leaped i front of my car. It was broad daylight, and I have good brakes, thank goodness. |

Nice! But you know what usually happens when a bear or a moose or some other unusual critter is found in Massachusetts: they are shot. And when they are not shot, they are transported. Wonder of wonders, they keep trying to come back--until they are shot. |
