As always, your shots are great. Love the mouthful of seed in the second photo, makes me wonder if we should be concerned about the weather :/
Thanks for sharing.

Wonderful detail - but given your proximity to Toronto shouldn't you be shooting Raptors ?

As long as he isn't also shooting Rangers, these jays will do just fine

The Jays still have more chance to win.

Shooting a few Rangers would be good right now.

Not sure about that. Jays are trying hard to lose by more points than the Raptors.

But the Jays don't have a 7 game series coming against the Cavs. As one CBS commentator put it, every Raptor has to have the best game of their life, every night. The Jays just have t do what they did last year.

In the dictionary I'm pretty sure there's a Blue Jay picture under the word greedy.

A bonus image from today for anyone following the thread.
