The Blue Jay is a favorite, but loud, visitor to the backyard. Blue Jays frequently mimic calls of hawks to let other jays know that a hawk is around.
The great egret returned, and I got a shot of him in flight. Much better results when you have a memory card in the camera. :P
A Great Egret shaking off its feathers. I actually "would have" got a good shot of him flying yesterday, but there was no memory card in my camera when I was shooting. Whoops.
