Handsome Steller's Jay In Snow
Artist

Medium
Photograph - Photography
Description
I had gone up into the hills to visit friends, and took my camera in expectation of seeing birds that don't show up near my house. I was not disappointed, as there were several Stellar's Jays flying in out out of the trees. This one saw something in the snow, and flew down to investigate. Isn't s/he handsome against that white snow?
From Cornell Ornithology's website: "A large, dark jay of evergreen forests in the mountainous West. Steller’s Jays are common in forest wildernesses but are also fixtures of campgrounds, parklands, and backyards, where they are quick to spy bird feeders as well as unattended picnic items. When patrolling the woods, Steller’s Jays stick to the high canopy, but you’ll hear their harsh, scolding calls if they’re nearby. Graceful and almost lazy in flight, they fly with long swoops on their broad, rounded wings."
