Ordinary is Underrated

I find it necessary to take time to appreciate the ordinary once in awhile. Do not discount the beauty of the common Blue Jay or its type A personality. These birds set off an alarm when a snake would come too close to our koi pond. They are accomplished vocalists. Yesterday I watched one splash unabashedly in the bird bath, then sit on the edge and mimic the screech of a Red-Tailed Hawk. So much more than ordinary.
