Jays in the garden

 Although they may not have actually bred in the garden last year, there were a couple of young which came to feed with parents.    Yesterday I saw two Jays but they weren't photographable together.   I have no idea how to tell them apart other than to say one of them can hold a lot of peanuts in its mouth at any one time!   Its crop appears to have even more peanuts than could be seen in the mouth.   The first image is a different Jay from the lower two photographs of the same bird, with all the nuts.
