Most of them co-exist very well together --and get along with each other quite well...BUT--then there are the pesky Blue Jays. They are beautiful--but can be aggressive.<br /><br />This week, I watched Daddy Bluebird (who is much smaller than a Jay) screeching at a Blue Jay who was much too close to the nestbox in Daddy Blue's opinion. The Bluebird did succeed by driving that Jay away, and his babies in the nestbox were fine. It was fun watching all of that happen.<br /><br />Have a great weekend.<br />BetsyBetsy Banks Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16223591156634767330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4196318759342517444.post-22646467856231143952012-04-19T19:03:46.180-07:002012-04-19T19:03:46.180-07:00I wish more people would coexist peacefully togeth...I wish more people would coexist peacefully together.

Especially after having worked at a couple where I was in constant conflict between feeling fortunate and humbled by being so close to the animals yet heart breaking that they were there. And they were injured or imprinted animals that could never be released. Yet it's educational.<br /><br />Most folks just can't disconnect from the tech and just enjoy the world around them.Gaelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05784162697113288888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4196318759342517444.post-66925345765007681722012-04-19T07:15:27.338-07:002012-04-19T07:15:27.338-07:00A really thought-provoking and well written post C...A really thought-provoking and well written post Chris. Although I know many zoos are good educators and have rare breeding programmes, I am never comfortable with animals in cages. I must admit, however, I have been to zoos as my daughter loves to see the animals - in fact she insisted on going to a Safari Park last year for her 21st birthday treat! <br /><br />I did like your descriptions of some of the people walking round - so often they just seem to go from burger parlour to ice cream kiosk texting constantly as they shuffle from one place to another!<br /><br />Some lovely photos in the post btw.Ragged Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14090463834740346114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4196318759342517444.post-45970953639005034462012-04-19T06:50:11.075-07:002012-04-19T06:50:11.075-07:00I'm am torn on the zoo issues.

I could go back and forth on this for far too long so I'll stop now.<br /><br />What I do want you to do is that, as always, I adore your photos, but your message today was so moving and so real and I thank you for sharing it.Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07343040992394808973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4196318759342517444.post-85054684740728361352012-04-19T06:38:21.700-07:002012-04-19T06:38:21.700-07:00terribly sorry about the father owl.

But when it comes to animals being close to extinction I believe that the zoos like the Smithsonian near me are helping to keep a certain species from dying off. As far as people go, I am amazed at how many litter. They just do not care about the environment. Are they just too lazy to walk to the nearest trash can? On a brighter side your niece and nephew are cute and I am sure they enjoyed the zoo. The Smithsonian has wonderful programs for children. Great post and photos. Have a wonderful day!eileeninmdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00070309645796725309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4196318759342517444.post-62516080750274474642012-04-19T02:02:16.841-07:002012-04-19T02:02:16.841-07:00I don't like zoos, they put animals in smallis...I don't like zoos, they put animals in smallish cages...like a human being in prison really!
