Forum member Gord Barter of Minden, Ontario, photographed this lively Gray Jay
(Perisoreus canadensis) in October 2009 at Algonquin Provincial Park, a 2,950-square-mile (7,650-sq-km) wilderness in central Ontario. "The Gray Jay in the park is on the decline, and researchers are trying to find out why," Gord tells us.
He used a Nikon D80 and a 70-300mm lens.
