Blue Jay was my knee jerk reaction too, although Liam is right, that would be one lost little blue jay.

Greater Roadrunner?

I first thought Blue Jay when I saw this yesterday, but searched online and saw it wasn't. What I did find were people selling the feathers on jewelry and such. :/

Life list (non ABA)- 204 Latest: Scarlet Tanager 

Coolest: Audubon's Warbler
2013 Year list- 165
Yard list- 108 Latest: Scarlet Tanager

Coolest: Lesser Yellowlegs (This bird was terribly lost during our May snow, we are near no shore for this shorebird)

Greater Roadrunner is correct! I don't think it's legal for them to even keep the feathers, let alone sell them.

Haha, when I said Blue Jay I completely forgot about range! It looks so similar to the ones I get in my backyard. :D
