Western Scrub Jay's (Aphelocoma californica)

I was sitting by my feeders today and had the opportunity to photograph these two beautiful birds! I am not quite sure why, but they prefer shelled peanuts to ones still in the shells. My only guess is that they want an immediate and easy food source. I hope they come back! It honestly came out fuzzier than I wanted. Any tips? Thanks!

I don't own a DSLR so I have no tips to offer. However it's a nice catch of these two beautiful birds, thanks for sharing!
