Jays (Garrulus glandarius)

Just a grab shot through a grubby window in poor light, but a record of how many show up as soon as I throw food out. There was actually at least one more in my trees, but it's very difficult catching more than two together in the same frame, as they don't tolerate each other for more than a second.

I'll keep trying for a better shot of them together, but I'll need better light and lots of luck ;)

A wonderful image of this line-up, Chris. I have four Jays regularly visiting my garden at the moment. Such entertaining birds to watch !!! Thanks for sharing.
 
That's amazing Chris it doesn't matter what food I put out, I rarely get more than one, I live in a rural area too, there are plenty about.

I was gonna say: I've never seen more than two within the space of a single frame. Amazing shot!!!
