Closeup photograph of a blue jay with out of focus branches in the foreground and background and a blue sky in the background. The blue jay is facing right in profile and only the jay's upper chest, neck, and head are visible. Blue jays have white-feathered bellies and chests, blue wings and backs with a blue, white, and black checkered pattern on its wings, a blue head with a black neck ring and mask under and surrounding its eyes and white face and chin, dark eyes, silvery-black beak, black legs and feet, and a blue crest on the top of their heads that can be raised and lowered.
