Hahahahaha What's common to one person is not to another. I forgot that Blue Jays are more of an Eastern species. Here is a decent site for bird IDs (the pictures blow but the maps and descriptions are ok) http://www.mbr-pwrc.usgs.gov/id/framlst/infocenter.html#Corvidae -- ======== Okay, I have seen Steller Jays then. And I have seen something that looks like a Blue Jay, a topknot like a Stellar Jay but with a lot more bold coloring (with white). I have found out though, that a lot of birds that don't live in California, can be seen passing through our county on the way to somewhere else. Not sure why here, but I've been told by birders it happens.
