Community Center: Welcoming Fall - DivineMrsDiva.com

To honor the return of autumn this year, I sat outside to appreciate the company of my beautiful backyard animal friends on a lovely, non-rainy day. Of course, I took loads of photos in the process.

Enjoy some moments that include my friends Scrubby J., Sideways, and the Stellystreet Boys.

We've been wanting to see a Chestnut-backed Chickadee for a while,
and my first visitor of the day happened to be one!!

Steller's Jay

California Scrub Jay

Finn watched me from inside

There are five or six regular Steller's Jays. I call them
the Stellystreet Boys.

This is my amazing, handsome, talented friend Scrubby J.
He stops by every day to play fetch with me. I throw peanuts and he catches them mid-air!

This is Sideways. He's so sweet and comes running to me to say hello.
Sideways has a tilted head and, after taking these photos,
it looks like his eyes are a little crooked. (see below)

This is the shot I was hoping to get - a Steller's Jay framed by my backyard fuchsia.
