March 2 – Blue Jays in the Cedars

Blue Jays are among the most beautiful birds in the north. These striking creatures can live up to 25 years and, like this pair, are found just as easily in backyard trees as in deep northern forests.

Interestingly, the blue color of their feathers does not come from pigment but from the microscopic structure of their feathers, which reflects light, making the Blue Jay both scientifically fascinating and visually stunning.

Knowing the Designer, what a joy it is to witness such craftsmanship.

“Beside the streams the birds of the heavens dwell; they sing among the branches.” — Psalm 104:12

Creation continually declares God’s glory — in the stars, the storms, and even the birds outside your window. Pause today and take a look around. You may discover joy exactly where you are.
