Yucatan Jay checking out what looks like tortillas

Yucatan Jay is primarily found on the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico, with additional distribution in other states of Mexico to the west, and in parts of the Central American countries of Belize and Guatemala. In keeping with its location and its resourceful nature, this bird appears to be checking out discarded tortillas near the famous Mayan site of Tulum. The yellow bill identifies this individual as an immature.

Here is another photo of an immature Yucatan Jay, taken on the same day as this image and posted here on Flickr a while ago: www.flickr.com/photos/luminouscompositions/51169419852/in...
