Connect2Nature - Blue Jay of Happiness I am revisiting some shots from the past, like the Bluejay I spotted on the trails of the Royal Botanical Gardens in Burlington, Ontario. These guys always make me happy. Doesn't quite fit the theme for #BirdofTheDay other than it's Fabulous. #Birds

I found a perfect spot to film swallows over the River Wey yesterday when my plans were thwarted. Watch to end of video to see why. I wish I could see what the bird was on the opposite bank that disappeared into the bushes. #Birds #Photography
