They are beautiful jays and especially attractive in this fine shot. I like the interaction between them. Well defined eyes in that black head and beautiful colors.

A sweet looking nature image posted here with a good story too! Your fine and appropriate composition offers us an enjoyable view of the little one growing up. Shades and tones are good. Exposure and sharpness are fine. Nicely done!

Pat,
A Fantastic picture of these two Stella Jays an adult & a juvenile on your back deck. The Juvenile begging for food! the light catching the sparkles in their eyes, highlighting their black & iridescent blue plumage. All movement of the juvenile's wings frozen by your fast exposure. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.
Susan

You just made my day with this awesome image! It's actually something that could have about ten different captions. It's full of story telling ability. Lol
The birds are delightful as if posed for this setting. Great exposure and balance. The adult bird is so gorgeous with this vibrant blue. It's all beautifully expressive. I could go on...
Thank you for sharing your beautiful gift.

A very special moment and you were present again - fantastic presentation with a nice close up and straight view point - clear and sharp with natural contrast - your frame choice is perfect as it attracts the view point directly to the situation
a very lovely picture - well reacted to a special moment, thanks for sharing

That's quite an interesting picture,Pat! ( Especially since we don't have this species of Jay down here in upstate New York! )
The birds themselves are attractively colorful and the nicely 'blurred' background looks especially nice!

Great shot here Pat! I really like the exchange you captured here between these two birds. They must be family, at least that's how we do it in mine lol. Great composition, well balanced. Nice focus for an action shot. Beautiful blues in their feathers, nice details. Thanks for sharing

This is a great interactive conversation between these two. I love your light, rich blues, tight framing and selective focus. Awesome shot.
