COLORED CROW

Has anyone seen a crow with brightly colored tail? I saw it today for the second time, first was in summer; and my wife saw it once last fall. A stripe of about 2 inches wide goes all across the tail, one inch from the tip of the tail. The top of the stripe is light yellow, the bottom side of it - mosaic of different bright colors, metallic shiny. I looked at it carefully for about a minute from a distance of not more than 8 meters. I went back home to pick up my camera, but it had gone in 10 more seconds. Plese let me know if you have seen or heard of any crows like that.
