Trying to figure out the name of the bird that looks like a Blue Jay but is about 35% bigger that was hanging around Lane Cove trying to steal food. Thank you

Figured it out a Grey Jay. They are known to eat out of your hand and I have seen them land next to your food ready to eat it.

Grey jays were active every day when I was at Washington creek last month. They are big.

Otherwise known as the Canadian Jay, they can be as bold and as mischievous as the squirrels and fox on the Island.
