    Jay

    A woodland bird somewhat difficult to photograph, as the slightest movement will make it fly away.

    I like those.
    Have seen Jay's in garden of my parents home in Swansea, but not photographed them, nor seen them anywhere else.

        Well done Nat.


        As I recall from my UK days they are indeed an elusive bird.

                  Not an easy bird to photograph due to their nervousness.

                    Thanks folks for your comments. Yes, it is a very difficult bird to photograph. I spent 6 days trying to get some decent pictures of the Jay.
