    What a wonderful shot! It looks like it should be a Christmas Card :)

    That jay must have seen you out and about with your camera and decided it would pose nicely for you. A perfect shot!! :D

    Lovely! I'd be using that as a Christmas card if it were my photo. :D I only have artificial birds in my wreaths. *sigh*

    Oh, I should have known THAT. You've shown them many times. Truly, Kildale, I have learned something -- I just spaced for a minute! Thanks.
