OMG!!! He's beautiful Stanley!!! Such lovely colours on this jay. A great find for you too, we don't have too many pictures of this species in the Gallery.

I think it's a clearer image than the current Opus one, so I've now uploaded it to the article.

Many thanks for sharing it with us my friend.
