Steller's Jay

Panasonic DMC-G1, Lumix 45-200mm

On a valley hike in Yosemite, I came across a Steller's Jay amidst the shady trees. These jays are abundant in the Valley, and if you've ever seen them you'll know that they are in constant motion. It took eight shots to get this final one that I was happy with.

Hi Warren, I've seen these birds while hiking here too and I am yet to get a decent shot of one of them! haha. Nice lighting and great angle. I love the softer tones in the background too.

Warren, since you mentioned bokeh, this is a nice use and gives the Jay a 3 dimensional look.
