Gray Jay.

[Daniel Cadieux]

Here's another cute and fluffy Gray Jay photographed in Algonquin Park last week. They like spruce forests so this picture is more indicative of its preferred habitat.

Canon 7D + 500mm f/4 II + 1.4TC, manual exposure, evaluative metering, 1/500s., f/9, ISO 800, natural light, handheld, usual eye work, a few spruce needles sticking out of the jay's shoulder to our right cloned out. NR to BG.

Sweetness factor is off the charts!
IQ and the feather detail is perfect.
Great comp and love the overall colors and light.
One of my favorites of yours,
Gail

The cuteness factor here is huge! The feather details are just amazing and this bird against the green is just over the top. This image would sell MANY cards!

Beautiful pose of this cutie, Daniel.
The details are just out of this world.

Super pose on a perfect perch. Detail in the feathers and the spruce are just spot on. All I can do is reinforce what others have said, cutness plus in this one. Also wanted to mention that the green background really compliments the whole image.

A classic Daniel....

A super image fit for a calendar everything about it is very well balanced

Excellent details, love the perch, great pose, very nice background, and nice light.

Amazing details and IQ. Cute as a button. Love the deep green bg and perch. A tad tight in the frame for me, but not much.

Marvellous image, Daniel Sir. Wonderful composition with artistic and lovely perch.
Rest as usual superb.
