Bitter Harvest

I know that everybody has to eat to survive, but it breaks my heart every time a jay is killed in our yard.
It was a big night for predators in our yard last night. In addition to finding this jay, we found the head and tail of a baby possum, as well as a huge pile of barfed-up possum remains. Gross.

They were so cute (there were about 15 of the little ones with mum & pop) skedaddling all over our driveway when one of our resident Jays took advantage. Ahh, natural selection, it still works. I can't help feeling that the aggressive Jays we have are nasty to the lesser of our native backyard species.
