Blue Jay

Hiding in the Tree

We are very fortunate to have lots and lots of birds around our home.  It probably is because of all the bird feeders we have out (we got 8 of those babies out there and we try to keep them from getting empty).  Although this is not a "perfect" photo because of the leaf in front of the bird, I like it anyway. I think that leaf in the foreground actually adds something - it helps tell the story of the blue jay pitching in a tree surrounded by old dead leaves.  And when you think about it, telling the story is the most important thing.  If you can tell a story with your photographs, that will interest people.  People love stories.
