Blue jay
Cyanocitta cristata

Field Notes
Description:
The blue jay mainly feeds on nuts and seeds such as acorns, soft fruits, arthropods, and occasionally small vertebrates. It typically gleans food from trees, shrubs, and the ground, though it sometimes hawks insects from the air.
Habitat:
My yard.
Notes:
The photos are a bit fuzzy; the jays always fly away if I enter the yard so I finally photographed them through the screen of the back porch.
