Quiscalus quiscula

This fellow wandered in while I was in my tent photographing. They are technically listed as rare for Los Alamos County,
but they visit for several weeks each summer, and raise chicks locally. They can be identified by the dark iridescent cyan head feathers,
and with a black body that looks bronzed in bright sunlight, as is the case here.
