This also is called a Mexican Jay
The bird was an out cast from the rest of the flock.
Every time it would try to mix it was run out by the normal birds.
Inasmuch as the sun was on the bird I got a perfect eye shot with out using any flash.
************************
The red eye is hard to see here but it is red.

*****************************
I tried not to use flash in these photos just to make sure I did not cause any red eye effect.
