    stunning Jan - the lighting is amazing – and the perch is classic – well done - I am headed to blue jay country in a few weeks – would love to get a good shot of one – dav

  • Jan Piller replied

    Thanks Dave! they love peanuts but make sure you get the raw ones from the pet food store and not a human grocery store. Even the unshelled ones are bad for birds.

    Wow, beautiful work Jan!
    It’s also rather confusing for me because the birds I have been calling Blue Jay’s for a long time now apparently aren’t!

  • Jan Piller replied

    Hahahahaha – you need to get a Peterson’s Guide Peter!

    This one is really well done Jan! The focus on the bluejay is excellent and his position great. And the subtle texturized background highlights his coloring.

  • Jan Piller replied

    Thanks Joanne! I still haven’t got the shot I’m looking for!

    Wonderful shot. I have two that are just outside on the grass. Cannot catch them. Their topnots are a little bigger than this ones. They are truly beautiful. A cardinal checks out the yard at other end. Cannot telephoto him, too far away.

  • Jan Piller replied

    Yh – I went and boought some sunflower seeds to see if I could lure acardinal into my yard – so far – no luck. The bluejays are plentiful enough but they’re so fast! They don’t sit still for even a second.
