Jungle Jewel
This morning, while browsing through some of my photographs from Costa Maya, Mexico, I stumbled upon a few that at first glance looked like nothing more than a dark tangle of leaves. I assumed they were accidental shots and nearly deleted them—until something caught my eye. “Wait a minute… what’s that?” Nestled in the shadows was a bird. Based on the shape and coloring, I believe it’s a blue-gray tanager (Thraupis episcopus)—at least that’s what Merlin suggests. Still, I’d appreciate help confirming or correcting the ID. The online photos show a similar bird, though many feature a lighter blue body than the one I captured.
Step into a world where even the smallest moments—like the glint in a bird's eye—tell their own story.
