I have more pictures of these birds but we saw these 7-11-2011 me and my hubby were beginner birders at the time so the pictures aren't the best and didn't realize that they might be a Code 5. We identified them as Blue Mockingbird. They were about 30 of them. We saw them near Lupton, AZ. Also if they are Blue Mockingbirds should we still report them?

Not a Blue Mocker, lacks the mask. Long bill is saying Pinyon Jay to me. Hopefully the range matches up too.
Total birds seen: 370
Latest Lifers:
