I believe this is the Rocky Mountains variation based on the mostly white head.

Great photo Cal....beautiful detail on the bird and the evergreen (pinyon?)!

Is this a juvenile bird? We have Gray Jays in abundance in the U.P. of Michigan but they are bigger and the grays and blacks are more pronounced. Or are they different out west?
