Steller's Jay

Yesterday as Luna, Millie, and I ambled around the yard, 
we evidently alarmed this Stellers Jay. 
It was noisy!






It shrieked at us for a while, and then it gave up and took flight.





The Audubon website calls that shrieking the jay’s “piping notes (worry call).

I’m sorry; piping notes may be the technical term, but its a raucous shriek.

I hate that sound.

And it scares my cats.




The bird in flight is kind of pretty though.




My sweetie pointed out that the jay outlines a heart in this next picture.


How did I miss that?
