	Jay, Garrulus glandarius
		Often, due to it's shy and wary nature, all that is seen is the white rump and fl tail as it flies away in characteristic bouncy fashion.
		The jay is one of the most widespread members of the crow family, occupying woodland as diverse as the Siberian taiga and the rain-forests of Thailand.
		Jays are reluctant to leave the shelter of woodlands.

	Eurasian Jay - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		The Eurasian Jay (Garrulus glandarius) occurs over a vast region from Western Europe and north-west Africa to the eastern seaboard of Asia and down into south-east Asia.
		A member of the widespread jay group, and about the size of the Jackdaw, it inhabits mixed woodland, particularly with oaks, and is an habitual acorn hoarder.
		Its usual call is the alarm call which is a harsh, rasping screech and is used upon sighting various predatory animals, but the jay is well known for its mimicry, often sounding so like a different species that it is virtually impossible to distinguish its true identity unless the jay is seen.

	Eurasian Jay (Garrulus glandarius)
		This most colorful member of the Corvidae family in Europe sports a "short bill, domed head, broad wings, chesty body, and rather long tail" (Cramp viii: 7); the wings are particularly colorful with narrow blue and fl striped bars on the outer greater coverts.
		A rather shy and timid bird where persecuted, the Eurasian Jay keeps close to cover and reacts to perceived threats with loud screeching calls and by mimicking the calls of predatory birds.
		The jay was known for its garrulity and its gluttony (Scholia on Aristophanes' Peace 496), and ancient writers praise its ability to mimic voices, including the human voice (although in some cases the sources may mean the magpie rather than the jay).

	Jay - The Royal Society for the Protection of Birds
		Although they are the most colourful members of the crow family, jays are actually quite difficult to see.
		The screaming call usually lets you know a jay is about and it is usually given when a bird is on the move, so watch for a bird flying between the trees with its distinctive flash of white on the rump.
		Jays are famous for their acorn feeding habits and in the autumn you may see them burying acorns for retrieving later in the winter.

		There are 34 sub-species of the Eurasian Jay, inhabiting a wide region that includes Europe, including the British Isles but excluding northern Scandinavia; northwest Africa, Asia Minor east to Manchuria, Japan, China, northern Laos and Vietnam.
		Eurasian Jays are shy highly secretive birds that live in forests, and come out into open scrubland only to feed.
		Feathers from the Eurasian Jay have been widely used in trout flies, salmon flies, seatrout flies and lake flies.

	Lanceolated Jay - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Lanceolated Jay or Black-headed Jay (Garrulus lanceolatus) is roughly the same size as its close relative the Eurasian Jay, but a little more slender overall except for the bill which is slightly shorter and thicker.
		It feeds both on the ground and in trees, and takes virtually the same wide range of plant and animal foods as its close relative, including eggs and nestlings, as well as scraps near human habitation.
		It nests in trees and suitable bushes and in this resembles the Eurasian jay in every respect.

		A hundred years ago the Jay was in retreat being persecuted by keepers and for its plumage — both for fly-tying and for the millinery trade.
		This meant that the breeding birds were confined to the south-east corner of Ireland and in Scotland had been exterminated from Ayrshire and some other areas in Scotland.
		In Scotland Jays have increased and are expanding north with breeding recently proved in Moray and Nairn and the Great Glen occupied between the two Breeding Atlases.

		The Netherlands issued two sheets of 4 stamps on July 6, 2004, which I assumed showed some of the animals of the Veluwe nature reserve.
		Each sheet featured a bird, with a Eurasian Jay (Garrulus glandarius) on the 39c sheet, and a woodpecker on the 61c sheet, presumably a Great Spotted Woodpecker (Dendrocopos major).
		However, I recently heard from a Dutch correspondent that there has been some discussion in the Press about the species shown on the stamps.

		In early 2003, a European Goldfinch was found in Dearborn, MI, and spent the winter in a sunflower field (read the full account with photos here).
		The only Eurasian birds of note this season in the Maritimes, aside from waterfowl, was a Eurasian Hobby -- but editor Blake Maybank was quick to point out the ship-riding habits of small falcons, amply substantiated in the Sea Swallow, the annual report of the Royal Naval Bird Watching Society.
		Despite overwhelming circumstantial evidence that most of the Eurasian passerines notes around the Great Lakes were not of wild provenance, we still think it important for observers to record what they see and study individual birds in detail.

		The blue jay (Cyanocitta cristata) is not, of course, the same as the Eurasian jay, Garrulus glandarius, although they're both members of the crow family, Corvidae.
		Every morning a jay would materialise out of the murk of the wood to my right and perch, quite visible, on a branch overlooking the road.
		Usually all that's visible is a flash of white rump, maybe a sheen of blue on the wings.
