Juggling jay

[John Robinson]

Not sure if a peanut has a proper "way" down position but Jays seem to do this a lot.
Taken from a hide for something else so pity about the perch . Peanut not too sharp but can,t have everything I suppose.

Hi Johnny, very well timed, and I feel you have nailed the comp with the jay framed in the lower corner. I like your BG. Perch mentioned, and seems like you were battling for ss, as a sharper peanut would have put this up a few notches, but not a deal breaker.

[David Salem]

Nice fun shot with and a nice BG. Perch is the perch, not much you can do if not a setup. A bit more shutter speed would have been nice but not a deal breaker is right. Well done

[Jonathan Ashton]

Nice shot Johnny, a faster shutter speed would have been ideal as would an acorn other that that I like the shot - including the perch.

[John Robinson]

Thanks
Did get him with an acorn but not juggling !!(I,ll paste one in !)

Perfect timing. Ok, the peanut is not as sharp but the bird is super. Love the BG and the perch (is something different).

Killer image and only wish that the entire "perch" were included in the frame.
