Excellent images! I have never figured out why such a common bird is so darn hard to
photograph. I have very few decent shots of blue jays in my files. The last 2 are my favorites
They never sit still and I've been watching them in various places that I know they hang out in. They do a lot of stuff in pairs. So after some research I realized you have to look out for the "guard dog" Blue Jay. They mate for life and they stay together. So the one on the fence post was protecting the one feeding. The guarding one will call out to warn other birds and animals of predators. So if you can sneak up or hide from the one whose doing the guarding, you have a better chance of getting some shots.
