What's the difference between a blue bird and a bluejay? I thought it was a bluejay..just took a peek.

Never mind, I googled it. Apparently bluebirds live in the southern part of my province..not here. I always thought a bluebird was a Bluejay

The only blue birds you'll ever see on Cedar Hill are Stellar's Jays. The cam is running in the Bird Feeder this morning... Lots of birdies out there! It is hard to get good shots on the cam in there because of poor lighting. I goofed up when I put a steel roof on it  In the next week I will be replacing the steel roofing with polycarbonate shade panels which should help the cam pix and the 16 Fuchsias that are trying to grow out there... Regarding my try at Sunflowers... The bird netting did great, but I forgot to put the slug bait out in time, so there are only going to be about fifty Sunflowers to show later. I am also putting together a new flower (Hummingbird and Butterfly) garden out next to the Sunflowers. Rain has slowed all my progress to a crawl... but there will be pictures soon!

I have no problems at all nope no slugs here, Barb. I just saw what WW wrote & I began to worry. so glad to hear that you have no problems. I have only grown SF 2 other times, & I had no problems with slugs either time, so I will go with that thought. Thanks
