Has the Woodhouse’s Scrub-Jay (present in Idaho) been ruled out somehow? The e-Bird ‘rare bird’ notification says the people finding the bird have it listed as the “California Scrub-Jay”. Now, this email says the “Florida Scrub-Jay”. Does anyone know if an actual distinction has been made about this bird, and why it’s not being reported as the Woodhouse’s Scrub-Jay? Just wondering…thx Jonathan, HSB

Subject: [IBLE] Florida Scrub Jay in Eagle
I saw the Florida Scrub Jay this afternoon at about 3:30. It was in the bushes just west of the Eagle Fire Station on S Plaza Drive. The bird moved slightly north into trees at the intersection of S Plaza Drive and E State St for better views.
Thanks to others for posting info on this bird’s location.
Cheers, Marty Marzinelli
