Gorgeous photo!!! We have 4 different types of jays in our back yard, along with flickers, red wing blackbirds, robins, white capped sparrows, and hummingbirds (soon). It's quite the entertainment!

An important reason these animals evolved to look like this is because they know what they look like... smithsonianmag.com/science-n…
