The blue jay (Cyanocitta cristata) is a passerine bird in the family Corvidae, native to eastern North America. It lives in most of the eastern and central United States. Their vibrant coloration is not derived from pigments but is the result of light interference due to the internal structure of the feathers, which if crushed would appear a dull brown. Blue jays, along with magpies and ravens are my favorite corvids. My thanks again to the Ceramic Art Studio and Shop.
