Not a good shot, by any means, but thought it might be interesting to see for those of you who aren't familiar with Gray Jays. This one landed on a friend's hand deep within dark forest in the Bragg Creek park. Terrible lighting, of course, LOL.

"The Gray Jay, Perisoreus canadensis, is a member of the crow and jay family (Corvidae) found in the boreal forests across North America north to the tree-line and in subalpine forests of the Rocky Mountains south to New Mexico and Arizona.... To the delight of modern campers, many individual Gray Jays quickly learn that we can be an excellent source of food, even coming to the hand for bread, raisins, or cheese." From Wikipedia.
