Bird ID Help - Central Florida, USA - Mysterious Blue-Tailed and Blue-Winged Bird (1 Viewer)

[FloridaBirdLady]

Hi all, I am a new at a birding and also not a professional photographer. I hope that you can zoom into this attached photo. This bird had a blue tail and some blue on the wings. The only possible match I found while looking online was a juvenile Mountain Bluebird, but that it seems would make no sense in central Florida. It was about half the size of a Blue Jay. I did not hear any birdsong. Thank you in advance for any help!

Looks like Eastern Bluebird to me ... That does make sense in central Florida.

I believe you have to be a member for a certain time before you can do this - hopefully one of the staff / moderators will be along to tell you properly.
