Not this year but last fall, I had a Woodhouse's S-J near the First Creek @
DEN Open Space trail. Spotted in the ramshackle horse-stall "barnyard" area
just off 56th Avenue, where the trail runs east of Pena Blvd and the
commuter rail bridges.

We also had a yard bird Wooodhouse's Scrub-Jay and yard bird Red-breasted 
Nuthatch this week. We have lived here in Highlands Ranch near the intersection 
of University and Colorado about 10 months. Yes I know they are both 
north/south streets but strange things happen to Denver streets when they come 
to Highlands Ranch. We still have 2 non-male Broad-tailed Hummingbirds coming

A Pinyon Jay would be much more unusual at Centennial.

Over the past few weeks in the Ken Caryl and Deer Creek area -- where the
scrub-jay is resident in the oak and scrub habitats -- I have seen some
evidence of movement by Woodhouse's Scrub-Jay, e.g., loose strings of
individuals flying along the hogback ridges (mostly southbound) and
individuals turning up in spots where they are usually absent.

['Rosanne J.' via Colorado Birds]

Regarding Scrub Jay sightings. I looked out around 7:00 am into my western 
Centennial backyard and saw a jay on top of a shepherd's crook. I assumed 
it was a Woodhouse's because of CoBirds posts. However, I just saw some 
images on the CFO Facebook page of Pinyon Jays, and I think my bird looked 
more like one of them. My bird had no white, black, or grey on its back. It 
was a brilliant blue. Is it possible it could have been a Pinyon? Or would 
that be rather rare to see one around here?
