These birds, although beautiful and reputedly intelligent, are quite annoying. They are very prolific around the Pacific Northwest, but typically avoid cities. This one was resting on the fence around a local elementary school located behind the movie theatre. (And yes, we only have one theatre.) I wish I could've caught a shot of him flying, so you could see the real beauty of these birds, but he took off too quickly and there wasn't enough time.

They are a pain in the you-know-what...I have seen them sit on a bicycle seat and unzip a bag and pull out the food therein!
Amazing!
