By: Lynn Street | Illustrator: Anne HunterTake a lyrical journey on the wings of blue jays as they bury thousands of acorns for next season’s food and help Mother Nature extend the oak forests.
Most of us know about the mighty oak tree, and how important oaks are as a keystone species. But we may be less aware of the role that blue jays play in assisting the expansion of oak tree forests.
Covering one full year from season to season, we learn about the habits of the blue jays. All summer long they feed on bugs, berries, and seeds. But as autumn approaches, they perch in the canopy waiting for the acorns to ripen. With cold weather coming soon, this blue crew hauls away acorns, each bird taking as many as five per load. They fly over a farm or two and hide the acorns in a sunny open area where they can find them later when other food is scarce. But not all acorns will be eaten. Little do the jays know that the treasures they bury may one day become the beginnings of a new oak forest.
This debut picture book from poet Lynn Street lyrically celebrates the connection between blue jays and oak trees. It will appeal to readers fascinated by the behavior of birds and by the reciprocal relationships found in nature. While jays depend on acorns for food, the oak depends on jays to scatter its fruit far and wide. Blue jays have specially developed pouches in their throats that allow them to carry several acorns at a time, and they can travel as far as 1,500 miles in a season burying their acorns. A keystone species in oak forest ecosystems, these familiar birds are thought to have contributed to reestablishing oak forests after the last ice age. The detailed back matter provides further information about oaks and jays.
Geisel Honoree artist Anne Hunter, who lives in the jay-filled woods of Vermont, illustrated this book with great affection for these beautiful, clever, and sometimes noisy birds. After reading this book, you will see blue jays in an entirely new light.

Where's my Dog treats
Flavor Name: Peanut Butter with Cranberry
I never received, no photo of where it was delivered. Update: Driver dropped off at the wrong address. My neighbor was kind enough to bring to my house. These treats are one of my dogs favorite treats. Sometimes they are a little hard but are mostly soft enough for my older dog.

Excellent Treats for Small to Medium Dogs!
Flavor Name: Peanut Butter, Size: 2.19 Pound (Pack of 1)
I’ve purchased the Purina Busy Bone, Long Lasting Small/Medium Breed Adult Dog Chews, Peanut Butter Flavor - 10 ct. Pouch several times over the last few months, and they’ve become a staple in our dog’s treat routine! Our three dogs absolutely love them. The peanut butter flavor seems to be a huge hit, and I appreciate that these treats are made in USA facilities—I feel more confident in the quality and safety.
They’re just the right size for small to medium breeds, and they last long enough to keep our pups occupied for a while. Plus, they don’t have that overpowering smell some chews do, and they don’t leave a mess behind, which is a big plus in my book.
Overall, these are a high-quality, tasty, and reliable treat that keeps our dogs happy and busy. Highly recommend for any dog owner looking for a long-lasting chew that’s both delicious and made with care.
