Eurasian Jay

Eurasian Jay / garrulus glandarius. Mapperley Wood, Derbyshire. 28/01/19.

 

'THE SILENT JAY.'

 

An image made almost two years ago of a Jay who put in several appearances whilst I was in a local wood. It's preference was to land at a distance from a feeding area and then cautiously work it's way closer, checking round in every direction. The stealth and silence of the bird was in stark contrast to the noisy, raucous, flashy encounters I've most often had with the species.
