Their is a great feather ID book called Bird Feathers a guide to N. American species. In Florida the only bird feather that has the type of blue/black/white combo is the Blue Jay. Swallow Tails and Mockingbirds don't have blue feathers. Mockingbirds have a black/white combo feather and Swallow Tails have mostly black with white base
