Western Scrub Jay

We don't really have the Blue Jay in Western Oregon. We have a relative, the Western Scrub Jay. Despite the name, it is a quite attractive bird.

Beautiful little bird

It looks very much like our scrub jays. Hard to tell but it looks smaller than ours, ours are a good size bird!

It's a good looking bird!

That doesn't look as much like a blue jay as I thought it would. Smaller looking. Nice shot. Linda
