Gray Jay

Perisoreus canadensis

Description:

very light gray to dark gray and black. There was a male and female. One of them has a black mask around the eyes. I don't know which one that is. Maybe about 9 inches from head to tip of tail.

Habitat:

in our campground. They didn't seem too afraid of people since they would walk around just a few feet from us.

Thanks for the ID Liam. I thought about Gray Jay but wasn't sure about the second photo? Is this a male and female or is the photo not a Gray Jay?
