BlueJay

This guy flew in while I was watching other birds and demanded I take

his picture. He was so loud all the other birds left.

Nice capture!

Not sure what he is, but he doesn't look like the bluejays I've seen- no crest! (And yes, nice shot!)

Thank you Igor and stephen. Yes he is not what I'm use to seeing either stephen but this is the only kind I've seen here in Calif.Thanks both of you for taking the time to comment.Here's another shot of him.

nice picture, but it's poor quality, maybe the jpeg compression, but it could be more sharp

Cheryl: We have these in abundance in Colorado too. I have several images of them in my bird portfolio. They are bold little things so Im not surprised you got so close. Nice work anyway because they are extremely alert as well.
