  2. I love the diversity of blue jays.

  3. Nice shot Steve! There’s an article about Steller’s Jays in the August/September "Birds & Blooms" magazine (not yet online).

  4. I have a family of blue jays in the tree directly in front of my windows and they come on our balcony. This one is gorgeous and far more beautiful and blue!

  5. Even his eye seems blue..or is it the flash ? beautiful, remind me :
    Song: Somewhere over the Rainbow (radioblog.com)


    Somewhere over the rainbow
    Bluebirds fly
    Birds fly over the rainbow
    Why then, oh why can’t I?
    Some day I’ll wish upon a star
    And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
    Where troubles melt like lemondrops
    Away above the chimney tops
    That’s where you’ll find me …

    (Lyrics from : Somewhere over the Rainbow)

  6. a subconscious archetype….

    Yes, I used a fill-flash, and she did not seem to mind. She just kept giving me new poses and a curious eye. Is he going to give me a cracker or what?

  7. Nice DOF & detail of the plumage!
