One of the best images I have seen of a Jay but wonder if a little more room on the right might help as the tail if very close to the edge. :wavey: :toast:

I agree with all the good points mentioned above. The one thing that struck me though is the pose. It almost looks as if the bird is sitting on the log with its feet stuck out in front of it which seems quite odd.

Certainly a difficult species to capture so well done for that Guy, I like the perch and the BG, very slight nit re the tail covered.
