With as many Blue Jays that I have (over 3 dozen) I seldom get the opportunity to get a shot like this with their crest up. Nice going.
 
The over-all image is good: nice dynamic in the pose, good bg, nice crop. I might suggest a little more contrast. Tones are just a bit flat: might try fill flash; or create an adjustment layer and use levels and curves to create more contrast. ;) I say this because this has a lot of potential. :D :t: :t: :t: of 5 cheers B :)
