Joel is definitely onto something with regard to a Blue Jay Invasion.  A
look at the NW Idaho/Eastern Washington listserv shows that in the last
month there have been no fewer than 11 Blue Jays reported at 8 separate
locations in that region.  Most of that area does not normally get any jays
at all.  Keep your eyes and ears open, they are likely to show up in a
woodlot near you (relatively speaking).

Hi COBOLers,

A Blue Jay also turned west of the Cascades this week. It was seen a few
miles north of Albany (Linn County) on Tuesday. The observer was hearing
similar calls for much of the week before she and her husband saw the jay,
so it's probably been around since Oct 20 or so. 

There might be a bit of a Blue Jay irruption going on, so if you hear some
raucous calls that don't sound like the usual corvids ... might be worth
checking it out.

Happy birding,
Joel
