Fun post, Bryn! I certainly feel the nolstagia for a waning summer, and as someone who has never liked baseball, I look forward to what fall brings by the time we’re here- weather, football, and all. However, I love the way your post organically speaks to our human experience of the changing of the seasons. And such beautiful Bluejays!

The story balanced against the bird pics ... wonderful. We’ve got three jays in our area--Stellar’s (always), California Scrub (increasingly common), and Gray (which Merlin calls the Canada Jay; you only see it in the mountains). I like them all!

I was an Expo fan, but when they left town, I, as a neophyte Torontonian, cheered for the Jays. I wasn't at any of the World Series games, but I listened to Tom and Jerry on the radio. When Joe hit the home run, I didn't realize at the moment that it was game over!
