I have spent at least 8 hours over the past week at the feeder waiting for good shots.
Yesterday I managed to get his photo within the first 10-15 minutes of trying. This Jay (and a few others) visit me multiple times a day for peanuts. I was in the process of getting the camera set up when my they arrived so the stars aligned.
This was the first time I have seen a Jay land on the skateboard, I feared they were too big! What a rush!
