I like the slightly low angle and the eye contact. I suspect you suffered for your craft this day but it was well worth it. Some nice detail apparent in the black collar and in the whites.

Great detail and composition.

Nice winter Blue Jay on a good perch. I like this time of year when the light bounces of the snow from below.

I like the falling snow, pose, details, perch and composition. Excellent image John.

Very nice! Beautiful color and detail, and the snow adds the perfect wintry touch. Wish you were a bit higher to get a bit more of his blue back, but a fin result regardless. A bird I never
managed to shoot when I lived in the Northeastern US.
