California Scrub-Jay
Observation details
After not seeing the California Scrub-Jay during 3 attempts yesterday, we finally saw it this morning. It showed up at the feeder within a couple minutes after we arrived, selected a peanut, flew off to a neighbor's tree, and then flew off to a distant telephone pole. I had just enough time to get a good look at the scrub-jay with my binoculars, and then grab my camera from the truck ... by which time the scrub-jay had flown off to a distant telephone pole. I was able to get a couple shots of the scrub-jay on the telephone pole, however.
