Jay, skedaddlin'. #BirdOfTheDay #RunningFromTheLaw 📷🌿🪶

A photo of a Steller's jay (Cyanocitta stelleri) running along a black metal railing toward the camera. It's a large songbird with a black head and breast, a pointed crest, dark eyes, and deep blue plumage on its underside, wings, and tail with black barring just visible on its primary feathers. It has one leg lifted high and the other on the rail as it moves swiftly forward. It's backlit by soft, warm-hued late afternoon sunlight that highlights the texture of its feathers, with bright green foliage blurred in the background behind it.
