"The Thief"

Western Scrub-Jay detail. Long story short. I was working on my

"natural light" squirrel setup when this bird showed up & stole the

peanuts from the squirrels. I'd been trying to catch him/her with the

camera for months with no luck. I got two shots in - this one & the

second which did not turn out. So this "thief" steals from our local

family of squirrels....

This is shot in manual mode, ISO 200, 1/320 s., f/4,5, 70-200mm f/2.8

Nikkor lens on my Nikon D200 at 190mm. Shot is cropped with very

little post processing.

Feedback will be most appreciated.
