We had a great opportunity to observe this Blue Jay this past week as well, prompting a second “In Focus Friday” post for the week. We’re trying some new things over here as we try to get our bearings.

That midweek foray had piqued our interest. We made up our minds—and when Sunday came, we went back to Chickasawhatchee Wildlife Management Area for a closer look. We left before dawn, as we often do, and arrived ahead of the sun. The pre-historic feel of Mud Creek Road, the same …
