Blue Jay

As loud as they are colorful, Blue Jays are considered intelligent and can sometimes be aggressive. Their diet is varied, and they are particularly fond of acorns. Photographer Paul Nelson followed the migratory patterns of North American birds to capture a one-of-a-kind glimpse of their natural and captivating movements as they take off for flight. Paul takes the photographs using a portable high-speed camera rig he specifically designed for this project. His portrayal of birds in their natural habitats without the distraction of complex backgrounds strikes a balance that is both beautiful and intimate.
