Steller's Jay

Cyanocitta stelleri


This is a pretty common bird in the Western United States. It is very easy to identify thanks to the prominent black crest and blue wings and body.

If it is all black, it is most likely not a Steller's Jay. It could be a Phainopepla...

I observed a ?? Steller's Jay?? in neighbors tree last week (03/12/09). The bird was complety black except for some lighter tail feathers. It also had bright RED eyes. The top notch feathers were simiular, but were a defined 3 single feather orentation. (much like a cockateal) No blue was apparent. WAS IT A STELLAR JAY???
