This is my first image of a jay, accidental of course, it kept coming down for food so I prefocused the lens and hoped for the best, It’s not pin sharp but I did only get one image only, I’ve seen many better ones here but I’m kinda happy as a trophy shot if you know what I mean, now to get a better one, :lol:

Great shot Paul. I was putting nuts out for Jays for three months before Xmas. All I managed was grey squirrel photos! They are extremely wary. Keep at it!

Oh well done, I love the way it is eyeing up the nuts! :)

Very hard to get anywhere near these guys. You’ve done very well to get this.

Thanks for the comments guys, as I’ve said a luck shot I just pre focused and pressed the shutter.
