Blue Jay's have been pretty scarce this past year in my neighbor, but I did manage to capture a shot of this one in my backyard.
One thing I've noticed about Blue Jay's is that they can be very loud at times, often eagerly gathering in small groups to scold squirrels or other birds away from a food source.
The Blue Jay (Cyanocitta cristata) is a passerine bird, and a member of the family Corvidae native to North America. It belongs to the "blue", Canadian or American jays, which are, among the Corvidae, not closely related to other jays. It is adaptable, aggressive and omnivorous, and has been colonizing new habitats for many decades.
