Eurasian Jay
Going back to Scotland today. These are Eurasian Jays. Beautiful, but definitely Jays. Loud, constantly bickering between themselves and often bully other birds. Unfortunately in this situation, the birds were in relatively bright light, but the backgrounds were in shadows. Makes for an uneven type of exposure. These were shot with a Canon R5 ii, a 100-500 mm lens at about 200 mm. Processed in PS with birds brightened and colors brought up.
