Linda- This is so gorgeous. I love bluejays. Have one that visits our yard but have not been able to get a good picture of it yet. The colors are so vivid and beautiful. Love the composition and the lighting. In particular those details that capture every fiber of the bird, especially the eye and the seed in its mouth is incredible.
Stunning work my friend.
