Image of Gymnorhinus cyanocephalus

Description:

gcwarbler and I were looking through a juniper and pinyon pine area on the edge of Corona, New Mexico about 30 minutes before dusk. It was very foggy and viewing conditions were pretty bad. I bumped the ISO up to 3200 on my camera just to be able to get an image. We started hearing Pinyon Jays and located a flock of about 30 birds. I am posting several shots, all of them grainy and marginal, but the best I could do with the conditions at the time. This is a species I've always wanted to get nice shots of, but so far that goal has eluded me.
