Jay, The Little Prince Of Air.
Artist
Dimitrios P
Medium
Photograph - Photographic Print
Description
The Eurasian Jay was one of the many species originally described by Carl Linnaeus in his landmark 1758 10th edition of Systema Naturae. He recognised its affinity with other corvids, naming it Corvus glandarius.The current scientific name is from Latin; garrulus means noisy or chattering, and glandarius is "of acorns", a favoured food.The word jay has an archaic meaning in American slang meaning a person who chatters impertinently. Its usual call is the alarm call which is a harsh, rasping screech and is used upon sighting various predatory animals, but the jay is well known for its mimicry, often sounding so like a different species that it is virtually impossible to distinguish its true identity unless the jay is seen. So, a talkative prince!

First of all, Dimitrios, your knowledge of birds AND your great gifts as a photographer are astounding. Then comes this little bird with a colorful coat to wear for the pose, wonderful!!! :D
Dimitrios P replied:
Thanks Mary, much appreciated - even if my knowledge of birds is limited to a dozen specimens, or just a little more than that. There are a couple of those living near my house, but it's not so easy to take good captures.
