It's a Stellar's Jay. They are raucus, like most jays, and really smart. If you throw some peanuts (in the shell) out, he will pick them up, one at a time, trying to determine which one is heavier....and will fly away with that one first.

Hate to nitpick but it is a Steller's Jay named after the following: Georg Wilhelm Steller (10 March 1709 – 14 November 1746) was a German botanist, zoologist, physician and explorer, who worked in Russia and is considered a pioneer of Alaskan natural history.[1][2]

Not a problem. No matter how its name is spelt, it's still a noisy, albeit pretty, bird.
