Nice shot, I would think some kind of Blue Jay, but I don't know very much about birds, unless they have engines :lol:

Agree, engines are much easier to identify. Too many years working on engines and not enough time taking pictures.

Thanks Allen. Thought the tail was too short for a flycatcher but don't know enough about birds. Appreciate.

Man I sure wish we had some out here, nice looking bird. All I have that are blue is Blue Jays but the Crows are scaring them off.

The male mountain bluebird. I checked my Sibley's, Audobon and Smithsonian bird guides. I would like to think it's the bluebird of happiness.

I miss the blue jay from Missouri. The jays here are different. Thanks for the compliment.

In a way it is. I am always happy when I'm in that part of Colorado. Thanks for the information.
