- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.

Of course, I'm mostly joking. I feel like many people who live in areas with both cardinals and blue jays are told when we're young that they don't get along very well and we just pick a side and stick to it lol. I love seeing blue jays too, or any corvids really. Much better than seeing all the invasive birds in my area like European starlings.
Yes, the starlings are the only ones I have to constantly remind myself that I don't really hate them. ๐ At the end of winter they really start to destroy my feeder station.
I bought into the blue jays scorn since I grew up being told they were jerks, but it changed one day when I decided to offer one a peanut. I've got 7 pretty regular bird buds now.
My cardinals are pretty shy, but this year a mating pair of them learned they can get the peanuts too. I don't see them near as much, but the lady cardinal is the more aggressive of the 2 when it comes to getting food and she will try to beat the jays too them occasionally and she can hold her own if she really wants that treat!
This day it was drizzling, so it went under by downspout to eat it's peanut.
Just hanging out.
I didn't see what spooked this one, but this was the most unusual photo I got of one of them.
Why are these photos so posterized?
I don't know what that is, so that is probably a contributing factor.
They're from my phone camera zoomed to the max, shot through my patio door and/or nylon screen at a bad angle, and Google's AI color correction.
They aren't meant to wow with their technicality, just quick snaps of my outdoor friends. ๐
I don't know what that is, either, but I love these pics of your feathery friends!
I'm glad you can enjoy them too!
If you want to see more birds, both my bad pictures, but many more good ones taken but actual photographers, check out !superbowl@lemmy.world for my daily posts. Lots of cool photos, and some great bird facts.
Oh you can support both unless they meet in the WS, then it is cardinals all the way.
