I noticed this blue jay in my yard this morning and didn’t think much of it (we have frequent blue jays to our bird bath). But as the day has progressed, I have seen the same blue jay in my yard in multiple different areas. During lunch, the blue jay flew right next to me and landed on my porch railing and then after my dog noticed him, started walking over, he/she flew away but not far… just to a tree on the side of our house and has been sitting in the same spot since then.
Just curious if this blue jay is just chilling or if it’s hurt and needs assistance :/

I thought maybe it was a mother and her nest is near but after looking at the photos, it looks more like a baby than a full grown bird
Looks like a young Jay. Probably fine.
Or, your neighbors put out peanuts or snacks on their porch railings, and this one is waiting for a snack.
