Crows & Bluejay...

So this morning i put out the suet feeder and my one bluejay was there as always waiting for peanuts. I'm a sucker for the bluejay perched on the back of the patio chair bobbing up and down making a little whoop, whoop kind of sound while facing the door. I swear i am referred to as the "peanut lady" and the jays all have my number... some of them more so than others. So the lone morning jay is begging for peanuts and i throw out a a handful to make him happy. And this one bluejay proceeds to take a peanut and fly over to the neighbors yard and hide it. The come back for another and fly away to hide it. He manages to hide a half dozen peanuts before any other jays find out that there are peanuts to be had. The funniest part of the whole story is that a crow was strutting around and "finding" the peanuts that the jay hid.
