Fusun, it took me years to appreciate the blue jay after growing up thinking that they were just uninteresting. They are loud-mouths, aren't they!
Tim, I love that idea. I have a bird's nest that i found in my yard that i put in my tree with a fairly realistic tufted titmouse. I have read that it's good luck for the coming year. We can all use that!
