Friday Feathers

The Blue Jay (Cyanocitta cristata) is a large, bright light blue and white bird with a black necklace.

Known as the alarm of the forest, screaming at intruders in woods. Highly intelligent bird, solving problems, gathering food and communicating more than other birds. Will scream like a hawk to scatter birds at a feeder. One of the few birds to cache food; its feathers don't have blue pigment; refracted sunlight casts blue light.
