Fabulous Blue Facts

When we view the flag, we think of liberty, freedom, pride, and Betsy Ross. The American flag flies on the moon, sits atop Mount Everest, is hurtling out in space. The flag is how America signs her name. What does the blue mean? The unofficial, but recognized meaning is Justice, Loyalty, and Perseverance.

When I think of America I think of a place where we all have a chance to be the best we can be. Not all playing fields are equal - some are born into poor families and some are born into wealthy families. It is up to each of us to choose a path. Some may have to work harder to achieve greatness and others may have much handed to them. Either way, we all make choices each day and every choice we make can affect where we end up. America is not suppose to be completely fair, but it is suppose to be a place where freedom and hard work can lead us all to greatness.

Fabulous Blue Facts

Hi All!

How many of you have helplessly watched your outdoor cat or dog become the victim of a blue jay air raid? I can remember watching our oragnge tabby, Spunky, recieve many attacks from one aggressive jay. Jays are very territorial. They will protect their feeding and nesting areas from various animals and humans. Dive bombing is a favorite form of attack. Jays are found throughout North America and are related to the crow, raven, and magpie. They can mimic the sound of a hawk - this is one way to they scare other birds away from their area. Jays are omnivours and enjoy insects, nuts, and seeds.

So, this spring and summer be on the lookout for these fierce birds and don't be afraid to let them join the smaller, sweeter birds at your backyard feeder.
