A Mischief of Jays
(2012)
Subject: Mexican Jay (Aphelocoma wollweberi), Arizona Darkling (Eleodes obscurus), Emory Oak (Quercus emoryi Dimensions (inches): 21.5 x 14 Medium: Pastel Description: In the oak woodlands of southeastern Arizona, we share a habitat with the Mexican Jays (Aphelocoma wollweberi). They form a social group, largely of family members, whose non-breeding juveniles from previous years act as helpers to raise a new brood. The youngest have a pale pink bill that over several years gradually reduces color until it becomes entirely black. These vocal, curious and intelligent corvids are both lively and captivating. Gawky young intently watch the older birds and learn the ways of their intricate world. Can you follow their story?
