I generally have a hard time getting a decent photograph of a Steller’s Jay because they are quick to hide when I get near. This one didn’t seem to be bothered by me taking photographs of it. The Steller’s Jay has several different sounds. Usually I know they’re around by a squawking sounds. But they also do a very good mimic of a red-tailed hawk. You can hear some of their calls here: Steller’s Jay calls.

What a good looking bird. Well done for finding a co-operative one.
I just love their crowns, and shade of blue. These are great images with wonderful clarity and detail. Nicely done!
Such beautiful colors and yet so cranky looking. You captured them so well
Wonderful captures, Maralee.
That is a really blue bird! Cool!
Now this is one beautiful bird! Well done.
