Blue Jays are
one of these birds where seemingly all individuals look pretty much alike. However, that is not true, and since they apparently had a good breeding season, there are lots of babies around right now and it is fun to look at all the different varieties they come in. So many colors, patterns and textures. The youngest ones have slightly curly feathers but the markings in the face can differ regardless of age. The red stuff on some of them is Mulberry juice.
