That little old bluejay looks like he's really enjoying bath time, what a great punk hairdo he has! Thanks for visiting Normandy today, lok forward to seeing you again soon. Maggie
Wow....you got some great shots. The other day I got a shot of a yellow bird at our birdbath but it was through the window and not so close-up. These are amazing!
Not so fond of the Blue Jays that frequent my back yard because they attacked my little Yorkie...pecked him in the eye...vet bill. I do love to sit and watch the Cardinals who seem to have adopted our trees and shrubs. Your fountain is lovely. Thank you for sharing your wonderful photos and for stopping by my post. Cherry Kay
Thanks for coming to my blog -- I like making new friends. That bluejay is hilarious. I have some in my yard, but they are mean. They chase off all the other birds from the birdbath!

Hi Snap! Oh, this is adorable. I'd say the Blue Jays are having a fabulous time beating the heat. Thanks for popping in to see me. Be a sweetie, Shelia ;)
How funny and bedraggled that Blue Jay looks in his bath - - - well, not as funny and bedraggled as I would look should some giant bird with a camera capture me!
Great pictures! Thanks for sharing with us. I see things in the courtyard so many times that would make great photos, but by the time I get the camera it is gone.
It's getting hot in Musashi's Garden and the birds are enjoying the bird baths.Cleaning out the bath and fountain is one of my first chores of the day.The kitties and I have seen cardinals, blue jays, doves, sparrows taking their turn.

There are two blue jays who visit the bath together.Coming and going, usually before I can grab the camera.

I love that Punk Jay!
That reminds me - our bird bath is looking a little mossy - time to scrub it out.

Blue Jays really know how to use a birdbath. I love watching them. They always make me smile.

These are just awesome photos! I can't believe they let you get so close to them. A precious shot of the Blue Jay.

Oh I just love to watch the birds in the bird bath. They get in there and just splash and splash and we giggle. Cool. V

What a HOOT, that Blue Jay got his money's worth from your bird bath! I always enjoying watching the birds splash around :-)

May 23, 2011 at 7:26 PM
What cute photos, Snap! The bluejay was certainly enjoying his bath!
