Original Fine Art Photography by Donna Kennedy..
Scrub Jay perched in a Blue Atlas Cedar tree on a early February morning, Reno Nevada
The blue jay of dry Western lowlands, the Western Scrub-Jay (Aphelocoma californica) combines deep azure blue with dusty gray-brown and white. The rounded, crestless head immediately sets it apart from Blue Jays and Stellers Jays. These birds are a fixture of dry shrublands, oak woodlands, and pinyon pine-juniper forests, as well as conspicuous visitors to backyards. Assertive, vocal, and inquisitive. You will often notice scrub-jays silhouetted high in trees, on wires, or on posts where they act as lookouts. In flight seems underpowered and slow, with bouts of fluttering alternating with glides.

We used to have Blue Jays in California. We are now in AZ and really miss the Jays. They're noisy but sooo pretty!! This is such a beautiful shot. Your lighting really captured the blue and makes it shine. Beautiful!!
