Peanuts- Get Your Peanuts!

I feed the birds and i have the birds who like peanuts (blue jay, titmouse, grackle, crow, red-belly). The Blue Jays are real big on asking for peanuts. A couple are even relatively tame when it comes to those tasty legumes. The Jays will perch on the back of the patio furniture and make a "whoooop" sounds as the bounce up and down. It's their peanuts please call... the "hey lady, you're shirking on your responsibilities and we need peanuts... now, please... whooop"

So the other day when i was on the second floor i heard that familiar sound... "whooop"... so i looked for the jay out the window. No jays in sight... so i called out "where are you jay?". That's when i got my answer "whooop"... not from a jay but a crow. I guess the crow has seen the action of the jay calling and me throwing out the peanuts... and figured he would give it a try too. whoooop!
