Jay - 7

This is the best photo I have managed of a jay. They are a bird I have always struggled to photograph as they are invariably too far away. I did use a photo as an extra, back in January, but it was very poor so it was great to finally get a decent shot and I consider this a replacement.

This photo was taken in Marbury Country Park which is coincidentally where I took the other jay photo so it is a good location for them, It is also a good place for great-crested grebes and there were loads on the mere. I have added a couple of trickier birds as extras, a stock dove (bird 62) and mistle thrush (bird 63)
