If you're gonna (Nucifraga caryocatactes macrorhynchos)

point that thing at me, then I'm outta here. Well, not in so many words, but actions speak louder than words, right? I got two shots of this Nutcracker working on the cone, then he looked at me, picked up the cone, and flew to a tree with better cover. Note, btw, the bulging crop. Not yet full, but already far from empty.

A great close up of this Nutcracker Ann!

You should try putting peanut butter on the cones you can reach. The birds won't be so quick to leave ;)
