Jay
I have trouble getting any decent shots of Jays as they are so skittish, probably the most wary bird I have had in front of the hide, but I'm hoping for a bit more success with this one and it's youngster which are coming in fairly regularly.
zoom @ 126mm
1/320 @ f5.6
iso 400

Good Jay shot. Nice background. Tiny bit big in the frame and a bit more space on the right maybe.?
No big deal.

I agree with John, a bit too central, but otherwise nice shot. :toast:

A great shot of a VERY SHY BIRD! My only nit is the hair or something protruding from the LHS of the perch. Nothing major though!
Regards,
Paul. :wavey:

a very nice image would probably have a little more room on the right great colour and detail one I would like

Main nit has been covered but a good result nontheless and one that I am sure you will improve on, perhaps with a little bit better light.
