This reminds me of the time I went camping with my cousin, we picked a campsite that is about halfway for both of us and when we get there and setup this blue jay comes flying by and lands on our table and my cousin and his wife are going crazy, they do bird watching as a hobby and were stoked to see the blue jay.

I felt so odd because we have so many at our place to the point they lay eggs in our bushes and they wake us up with their calls and it's weird to think that only a few hours away from the campsite where my cousin lives they don't have any

Yeah, my wife’s family lives up in the northern US. We live in the south. The first time they came to visit, her uncle was stoked to see a mockingbird. It was funny to me, because they’re practically everywhere in the south.

He was less stoked when he got attacked by said mockingbird, because it was nesting season and he was too close to the nest.
