Peek of the Week 047

A juvenile scrub jay comes back for seconds when the food is peanut butter.

Scrub jay approaches a dish of peanut butter

The scrub jay is one of the offspring of our resident jay pair. He's discovered the joy of peanut butter, although he's still a little bit wary. I know he's one of the kids because sometimes when he approaches the dish, he flutters his wings like a baby and makes baby noises. Does he think that's what makes the peanut butter appear?
