Western Scrub Jay

A Western Scrub Jay came by for a nosh at the feeder this morning.

Photo Hunt & Saturday Sky

It’s very rare for Fiona to do a flop in front of me but she was so tired after running about and I was stealth enough with the camera that I caught her snoozing under my desk. Yes, she does sleep with her eyes open, a lot of buns do this.

The other thing I find interesting about this picture is how much her grey undercoat shows. Normally, you just see her brown topcoat with a hint of her grey fur. Since she is part mini-rex, she has a plush undercoat. You can also see a couple of her spots, which are normally not visible - her other half is English Spot.
