A short while ago, I saw something I couldn't identify on the feeder. It was scaring away the fresh young sparrows newly brought out and Momma Sparrow was holding forth very vocally as well as spitting at it. The bird, definitely a Blue Jay, was very strange looking. It is bald from the shoulders up. I ran for the camera and in the meantime a few Grackles and a Brown headed cowbird came in and displaced the Jay. There is something else about the colouring that I can't quite grasp. Maybe it is bald elsewhere.......I am not sure. A very strange looking creature indeed. I didn't see gooey eyes or sores, but that viewing was very short. It might be back. Has anyone else seen it in this area? Marg Millard, White Point in Queens http://MargMillard@MargMillard.ca
