Observation details
Sometimes, the birding gods smile down upon you. We stopped here for a snack break (our first stop in the area) and I played the tape for the jay, just in case...A huge surprise when one started calling back!! We found it up the hillside and watched it sneaking around for a few minutes. Photos taken, as well as intermittent recordings (difficult, due to frequent traffic on road). A striking deep blue jay, with bright white throat and white curved supercilium, and blacker face and hood. Acting furtive in the low vegetation and shrubs. Exact location: 16.182153, -96.509656
