After the limited success of the mangers of the winter 07/08. For much of this winter I have not furnished any manger and have fed the birds in the garden with only the odd leftover bread, until I noticed a jay that was a steal. So I decided to mount a perch and packed with sunflower seeds, of course, a few weeks after the seeds sprouted but there was not even the shadow of jays, titmice, doves, blackbirds and magpies.
Yesterday afternoon I decided to put the pieces of stale bread in a manger near the roost. Within half an hour the jay had disappeared all the larger pieces. Following the instructions of the "Focus Trapper "I have set up a camera trap to capture the moments of the robbery. Yesterday I had no luck and today I thought I had not had much luck in the early afternoon because I had noticed that the camera had run out of batteries.
I wanted to publish a post on this experience, and then I had been to look among today's shots, a few decent photos of the roost. To my surprise, among the photos of my hand used as a subject to verify the location of the fire, I found some shots of the jay has repeatedly raided the crib without anyone noticing it)
