I think in industrial Cape Breton=2C particularly the Sydneys=2C New Waterf=
ord=2C Glace Bay (which is where I live)=2C you MIGHT think they have decli=
ned=2C but if you go out to 'the country'=2C you'll still find the Gray Jay=
s there...places like Homeville=2C South Head=2C etc.  I can't speak on the=
ir numbers though.  They may be gone down too. BevGlace Bay

     It=92s interesting how gray jays still seem to be common up Cape Breto=
n way.  I have been back home in Yarmouth in the winters now for over ten y=
ears=2C and they became unusual some time before that.  Do you Cape Bretone=
rs find they are declining?=0A=

               Last winter I was going through bird pies at least one every=
 day. Woodpeckers=2C hairy=2C downy =2C and pileated were very frequent and=
 the sunflower seed was getting a lot of attention. . By contrast currently=
 I am rarely seeing anything. Maybe that ice storm we had is to blame?=0A=
