Title: Bird Feather ID
Post by: Pearly Invicta on July 25, 2011, 07:20:27 PM
I was out mushrooming today and found this little feather in the woods.
Anyone know what it's from. Lovely blue colour.

Excellent, I know this forum wouldn't let me down on this one!

I've never seen a Jay around here.

A bird that does not like humans & I can not blame them, the birds that is. that is why you do not see too many. Tradiitional fly tiers love them.

Definately, a Jay.  I spotted two - my first two - on my way back from the Tweed stravaig last year.  Blue Jays are very common in New Jersey, but don't know if the jays in Florida are different.
