During our picnic lunch break, a Scrub Jay stopped by for a snack. We placed nuts on the table and the jay would snatch them and fly off to an unseen nest. He continued to return until we ran out of nuts.

Hovenweep National Monument - Utah
After our stop at Four Corners, we drove over to the Hovenweep National Monument. The towers of Hovenweep were built by Ancestral Puebloans between 1200 and 1300 A.D. It was amazing, that so much of the buildings are still standing after 700 years. We took the hike around the canyon to get a better view of the buildings.
