America's Next Top Gray Jay - Mt. Tom 12-10-11

[J&J]

Hiked up Mt. Tom yesterday, had a dusting of fresh snow over some older snow, a little chilly on top with a bit of a breeze but a nice day nonetheless. A Gray Jay came to visit and gave me an opportunity to take some pictures.

Such a handsome little guy. Wonderful portrait!

Love the way you cropped and/or composed the first shot. Also, what a perfect neutral background.....sometimes those thick gray clouds have a good use.

I think your photos would be viewed favorably by another "John", i.e. John James Audubon.

Great work, John!

 

[Jimmy Legs and Little D]

Incredible photos, John! Especially the details of the jay in the last photo.

Nice! At first glance I thought you were joking because the first photo made the jay look so small. The details on the last are simply amazing.
