Well, looks like we are in for those dreary days for a few now.  Yuck.  This was taken on a dreary morning in very late December.  I had my 500mm lens with me but the 300mm was blurring if they moved even a little so did what I could.  This was taken while this Blue Jay was sitting in the in-law's Ornamental Pear tree.  It was wanting some peanuts.  I liked this view of it because it really showed off it's markings.  They say Blue Jays are bullies but I have not really seen evidence of that.  They squawk very loudly when they want their  peanuts but they don't seem to bother other birds.
