Another Eagle shot I wanted to share. I saw this Blue Jay hopping around while I was trying to get a shot of the Eagle. I only managed to get them both in one shot. I thought it added something to the scene. Not only color, but perspective showing the difference in size between them. I suspect I will never have an opportunity like this again. Enjoy!

I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?
Blue Jay, what's for dinner.
Amazing seeing the size difference.

The eagle has just eaten and so there is no danger for the blue jay. Good one Tick.

Very good and well timed, kudos! It sure does have a good perspective. tigz=^..^=

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life and so is my love of photography. sandi ♪ ♫
Great snag, Tick! And good observation about the size comparison.
Richie's right, blue jays ARE cheeky! It's highly unlikely, however, that the jay was ever in any true danger from the eagle. I'm sure he was just more of a nuisance or curiosity for the eagle.
What does surprise me (and maybe it's simply of trick of the compressed photographic perspective?), is that the eagle would put himself into a position of such a cramped, confining space among the branches, where he couldn't easily extend his wings and fly out quickly, if need be. That would be very unusual!
You sure got yourself a looker there though! He's a real beauty, Tick. And the brilliant, blue pop of the ballsy jay is a bonus.

A fabulous capture Tick - maybe a once in a lifetime. I hope the blue jay was safe

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
I opened and enlarged it in Photoshop and it appears the jay really doesn't trust to faith in the eagle... he's keeping an eagle eye on him. And yeah, I don't believe we'll see a combo like this again.

If you've ever wanted to make a difference but found it hard to believe that one person could... check out the Kiva Team Caedes discussion thread and discover that anything is possible.
Priceless capture - boy that eagle has an eye for the tiny beautiful bluejay. Fabulous composition and looks 3D on my big screen
