Information about the California Scrub Jay:

The California Scrub Jay is a species of bird native to much of western parts of North America. Its a medium-sized bird, approximately 12 inches long (27–31 cm) - including tail with a 15 inch (39 cm) wingspan. They are very bright birds and have adapted well to living in nearly every environment they encounter, from deserts, to forests to urban areas and cities. Because they are so adept at foraging, they do very well in areas with human activity and are able to make use of discarded food. They will even steal food from other birds like acorns from woodpeckers and pinecones from Clark's Nutcrackers. They will even ride the backs of livestock, picking off ticks and other parasites.
