Thanks Lanny,
                      I've heard that Blue Jays do just that, migrate
about 100-200 miles south and that you get the ones further north in
winter, but last year my regulars were gone in September and since
they seem to be still around, (like this morning), that perhaps they
would stay.  I had Blue Jays over last winter, but only about 2 and I
didn't see them every day.  They ate inside the cedar hedge where I
feed the Cardinals, and not in the open platform feeder by the kitchen
door like my regulars.

                      I'm really gonna miss these characters if they
take off for the winter...geeez!

Maybe a constant fresh supply of peanuts may sway them..?

Lynda
