Jays

I have a family of five young Jays and two adults coming to feed at the moment. There is a lot of interaction between them that I have been trying to photograph with varying results. I haven't achieved the shots I am after yet, so more work to do on this one over the next week or so.

An adult
This parent was responding to one of the young which had landed nearby and was calling to be fed.
Juvenile
They don't seem to know what to do with the peanuts yet, often sitting with it in the beak like this for several minutes before putting it down again. They are still quite dependant on the parents.
