Whenever I come across a blue jay in Northern California, particularly near Sacramento, I remember Mark Twain's short story, "Baker's Blue Jay Yarn." This sassy jay is just the sort of fellow described in the story. It's worth a read, if you've never come across it. (http://www.mead.k12.wa.us/mhs/Stedman/classweb/Short%20Stories/Baker's%20Blue%20Jay%20Yarn.htm)This one was flitting around the State Capitol Building.
