Share the Joy: Blue Jays

A couple of days ago,

I hung a new block of high protein suet 

from a limb on the birch tree.

I got a good scolding from a Stellar Jay

who'd been sitting in a nearby tree.

"Get outa here," he screamed,

as I inched my way to the tree,

greasy block of fat and seeds in hand.

But a couple of minutes later,

three gorgeous, noisy jays were flitting from branch

to branch, and diving down for a snack.

Sheer joy --

except that they wouldn't sit still for a photo. 

So I had to settle for this photo (owner unknown)

from a bird identification site.

Other sources of joy?

Nashville's on tonight.

My new display cabinet and media center

were delivered today and look even better

than I anticipated.

The real estate market has picked up a bit

and I've had -- or will have -- three showings 

within a week by Saturday afternoon.

No offers yet,

but I'm keeping fingers crossed

and St. Joseph in the garden,

standing on his head.

What sparked the fire of joy in you this week?

Notice joy.

Cultivate it.

Celebrate it.
