Description
This beautiful Blue Jay (Cyanocitta cristata) is a regular visitor in our back yard. He and his buddies provide hours of enjoyment as we watch them interact with the other birds and wildlife in the area. I was happy to get this shot to show off his beautiful wings and vibrant blue feathers in flight.
This common, large songbird is familiar to many people, with its perky crest; blue, white, and black plumage; and noisy calls. Blue Jays are known for their intelligence and complex social systems with tight family bonds. Blue Jays make a large variety of calls that carry long distances. Most calls are produced while the jay is perched within a tree. They usually fly across open areas silently, especially during migration.
Photo captured in central Ohio, and digital enhancements applied to give it my special touch.
