Wyoming Fish and Game was contacted and they did NOT want the carcass. It was destined
to reside in the dead animal pit at the landfill so I thought maybe someone would want … http://www.health.wyo.gov/phsd/skeeter/deadbirds.html

Magpie is the correct entity…

Seems we in the west take regularly this bird for granted.
It really is an amazingly beautiful corvid
and is commonly slapped with derision and lead across its range.
Cool that as you move south…they turn into magpie-jays.
This is my all-time favorite, although I never got to see one:
Pinnah, I think that there is a styrofoam ball at Hobby Lobby,
I am going to just imbed them in that foam and orient them
like they are in the wild…and put em in the display case cause
