Field Notes

Description:

Medium to large striking bird. Lights up the horizon when it takes to wing. One of my early favorites mostly because it just appeared on a stalk in the field and I thought oh another house crow,

Habitat:

Fields and scrub...

Notes:

Just how many species of blue jay are there?
