Bluejay Coup

Bud1880

Twice in the last week a group of blue jays have literally taken over my bird feeding station. Like a group of thugs they swoop in, stay about 3 o4 4 minutes and then they're gone. Needless to say everyone else scrams when this happens. No beautiful shots here but they give me plenty of opportunity to practice whatever it is I think I'm doing.

This is the "King". He's got the tallest crest.



I think this shot just says "Zoom".









Thanks for lookin'.

The last one would have been the best one if only he was turned to the light...everything else is good.

Thank you Dan. I can lure them in but I just need to devise a better perch. Aesthetics?

Thank you Jack and Chuck, appreciate your comments.

Chuck,

55-250 f/4.5-5.6 IS and I'm right on top of them though.

I see that Ric and thanks. I've obviously got to get one or the other to cooperate more.
