Post by: meatwhack on November 10, 2013, 03:53:26 PM: Not sure on the bird but that buck looks good and pretty young. If he makes it a couple more years you are going to have a real stud.

:yeah:

Bluish body, gray head, not a Stellers or Gray Jay.

Post by: RAZORBILL on November 10, 2013, 09:32:28 PM: Don't know the name of the bird but the darn things are territorial as hell. I've sat down a couple times hunting and had them sit in a tree near me a squawk up a storm. Annoying little things....

Post by: bowhunterforever on November 10, 2013, 10:30:35 PM: That buck will be knarly in a couple years

:yeah:

Classic little swoop they do.
Title: Re: What kind of bird is this???
Post by: lokidog on November 11, 2013, 08:16:06 PM: Could be a gray jay, though it seems more blue. I relooked at the scrub jay photo and they have a bluish head, not gray.
Title: Re: What kind of bird is this???
Post by: Pugetsound on November 11, 2013, 08:17:50 PM: My instinctual guess would be a california scrub jay which is a scrub jay sub-species. They are found in SW Washington. I have also seen them as far up as the Ballard neighborhood of Seattle.

Post by: h2ofowlr on November 11, 2013, 08:22:11 PM: Head back to the area and sit. That bird will stick around if their is still food to be had. Then the mystery will be solved. A stellar Jay or camp robber. You take the pic.
