Alex, if this is your pet bluejay, you may want to get him to a vet. I can see that he has a few mites living in his eyelash roots. Great close-up buddy :-) Don

very good closeup. the top of the bird's head reminds me of a watercolour effect.

Was also wondering lately if you two got a new lens, as your photos seem a lot sharper

Fabulous close up.
