The colorful Scrub Jays used to forage for food regularly on this old growth pine, brightening up the dreariest of our dark, foggy days.  However, we have not spotted a Scrub Jay in City Birds Country, the Heart of San Francisco since 1998 -- perhaps due to over-population by humans and the resulting loss of food sources.  NOTE:  The tree on which this Scrub Jay is foraging has now been sawed down.
