Florida Scrub-Jay




The Florida Scrub-Jay is restricted to the rare oak scrub community of Florida, a habitat under constant threat of development, and is classified as Threatened under the Endangered Species Act.
The birds shown in these pictures were taken in Lee County Florida in an area which future development will surely push them out. This was my first sighting and I felt very lucky knowing that next time they may not be there.
