Description
A beautiful image of a baby Blue Jay that was learning to fly. I captured the little one with my macro lens and then took the image into Photo Shop and created a painting out of the image. I used textures and an effect called Georgia O'keeffe painting.
The blue jay (Cyanocitta cristata) is a passerine bird in the family Corvidae, native to North America. It is resident through most of eastern and central United States and southern Canada, although western populations may be migratory. It breeds in both deciduous and coniferous forests, and is common near and in residential areas. It is predominantly blue with a white chest and underparts, and a blue crest. It has a black, U-shaped collar around its neck and a black border behind the crest. Genders are similar in size and plumage, and plumage does not vary throughout the year. Four subspecies of the blue jay are recognized.
The blue jay mainly feeds on nuts and seeds such as acorns, soft fruits, arthropods, and occasionally small vertebrates. It typically gleans food from trees, shrubs, and the ground, though it sometimes hawks insects from the air. Like squirrels, blue jays are known to hide nuts for later consumption.[2] It builds an open cup nest in the branches of a tree, which both sexes participate in constructing. The clutch can contain two to seven eggs, which are blueish or light brown with brown spots. Young are altricial, and are brooded by the female for 8�12 days after hatching. They may remain with their parents for one to two months.
The bird's name derives from its noisy, garrulous nature.[3] It is sometimes called a "jaybird".

What a wonderful picture of one of my fave birds (I say that about all birds ... except starlings). They are so sassy and vocal. I have four that come to eat in the morning and evening. An if I don't have the seed out on time, they are vocal about it! :)
