I like it, Karl. What a beautiful Jay I have never seen. Lovely composition and background. Thank you for sharing.

Karl this is simply superb IMHO,you have posted some cracking images but this as got to be one of your best, composition ,bg and the bird itself are excellent.

Absolute gem the pose is really interesting and the perch an background idyllic - just couldn't ask for more.
I haven't seen one before I get the impression it is not very big - certainly smaller than our jay.
What a beauty, Karl. Ticks all the boxes. Was this a setup, or did he just happen to give you the perfect pose on the perfect spot of a perfect perch?
Thanks Bill. It was a setup. I used branches of a Tamarac tree which is native in Algonquin P.P. where this image was shot.Originally Posted by Bill Dix
I used peanuts and raisins to attract them. They love raisins.
very nice shot, perch, b/g bird all good
I really like the framing of the bird with the upper branch. Interesting look-back pose. Good image.

You done real well here Karl. All been said above, which I agree with. I also think its one of your best images. Well done mate.

Great image Karl! I like the perch, pose, IQ, BG and composition.
Sweet look-back pose and overall setup. Beautifully done Karl
This is awesome Karl. One of your best shots IMO.
Only suggestion I can offer to improve this already great shot would be to blend the OOF vertical "branch" on the RHS of frame,
