Well Dan, it doesn't sound like you got quite as close to this Jay as you did 
the Florida Scrub! I know Don & I will never forget my lifer Scrub Jay as it 
perched on your cap & pecked the button! Dave/Breaks

  Still out in Southern Utah. Took a hike to a National Conservation Area, 
Beaver Dam Wash. As I climbed this very steep grade I was fortunate to see 4 
Mountain Bluebirds. While they weren't life birds, I'd only seen them twice 
before. I trudged up the hill another 100 yds and hearing this racket, I 
spotted a couple of Pinyon Jays, my life bird find. In a few minutes I counted 
17 Jays as they flew overhead. I persuaded them a bit closer with my IPhone Ap. 
Unfortunately I didn't have my camera. Maybe better luck next time. Dan
