Gotcha!

After several months of staking out in our backyard and sour-graping,  I was finally able to snap a species considered rare in Colorado - the elusive Blue Jay.  

I caught a glimpse of its pretty plumage from the kitchen window while prepping my potato-leek soup.  As luck would have it, my camera was lying on the dining table with the right lens.  I quickly grabbed it knowing that my feathered friend would be gone in a few seconds.  True enough, it vanished in the wink of an eye ... but not until after I took several shots ... woohoo!!!
