Stellar Jay

A Stellar Jay enjoys the rainy weather at Mount Rainier National Park.

I was really lucky to click this one. This Stellar Jay kept hovering around us. We had stopped to take pictures of a waterfall at Mount Rainier National Park in Washington State on October 3, 2011. It was drizzling and a downpour threatened. Finally the fidgety bird settled on a branch, about 20 feet from me. I quickly focussed my Canon T2i on it and clicked the picture.
The 18-135mm lens is awesome. The exposure was set at 1/200 and ISO at 640.
