More Avians are OK

In this case a scrub jay.

He's tossing out the least favorite seed until he finds the sunflower, the most favorite! We've watched him stuffing his beak until he's dropping the seeds, then zipping off to a nearby tree to hide them in his cache. Flying off and back in that oh-so blue jay-ish swoop, so much time that I'm sure other birds are finding the cache and helping themselves while he's away.

I'm not sure if it's a female/male/young one.
If you guess the age and sex you'll win a prize!
