“Vlaamse Gaai”. Beautiful coloring. We have them occasionally on our balcony.
Jay, and an excuse to post my Jay photo from today (Reading, UK)
now that’s how you use a camera
Mmm, but it is a powerful camera + lens, making it easier :) And the light was kind.
might help if you tell us geographically where you are seeing it
north-west europe, above the tropic of cancer but below the arctic circle, on a greenish landmass rotating on the nearest planet to us in the solar system

Definitely a Jay of some kind: https://www.rspb.org.uk/birds-and-wildlife/jay
