Seeing a Eurasian jay landing on the balcony, steps from where I sit, hopping from pots to pots and hiding a peanut it must have gotten from somewhere in the neighbourhood was the best thing to happen. Getting a phone call while it was happening was not so great. Having my wife interrupt the phone call shouting "HAVE YOU SEEN THIS!?" was glorious. Later she told me that as soon as the jay left, a Eurasian magpie lands on the balcony, retracing the jay's path from pot to pot, looking for the peanut but failed to notice where the jay had hidden it.

And now my question is this: @deshipu, have you been feeding the magpies again and the jays are now bullying them around, stealing their peanuts? 😂
