Great shot, Carol. Another great lure is those red-purple ears of Indian corn you can often find at farmers' markets...Jays love them too.

Thankyou Ian, for the 'tip' on corn too... I'll get some now that there at all the markets.

What a neat shot! Sitting and waiting can be very hard to do, but sometimes it pays off!

You're right SJC! Patience is a 'virtue'... Just missed catching a fox hunting in my front field...will have to 'sit & wait' for his next visit :)

Haha Cheryl....jumpin' Jays are always hard to find :)
Great timing on this hungry fella and I actually think it looks more interesting without the spread wings. It took me a minute to realize he was suspended in air, and I certainly chuckled when I did. Nicely done!
