Was it working or playing when it crashed into the tree at whose base it fell?

I have to agree with the Guest comment (who are all our incognito commentators anyway) about morbid but that's the way life works sometimes. That said I also agree with Big T about the title, Great, great title, Voteable for the title alone. And from the looks of this Jay I'm guessing he's been DOA for some time. Paul

I find it hard to believe that it hit a tree and died. I have seen these birds zip through trees all the time. On the other hand, if it was being chased by a hawk, it may have missed its turn & crashed. Jim

I aim to please/amuse/interest/etc rather than to garner votes. The title pretty much suggested itself. We lost a lot of jays and crows a few years ago, and I'm happy to see them recovering even if they tend to be a bit raucous. Check out this shot I posted directly to Pending:http://www.pbase.com/image/168141480 Dave

This is great...I laughed out loud and choked on the laugh at the same time...this will not be a vote getter, but the image holds real significance. Traveller PS love the title.

That's morbid.
