Eurasian Jay (Garrulus glandarius)

Rather heavy crop as the bird wasn't all that near, but lighting conditions were perfect, which helped.

Strong winds outside at the moment, over 40mph, but my resident Blackcap is still singing, as it's been doing quite loudly since 5.40am.

Thank you for your comments on my pictures, stay safe and well, and good birding!

A wonderful frontal view of this handsome Jay John. Excellent pose, focus, lighting, detail, and colors. Terrific!
