Eurasian Jay

The Eurasian Jay is a species of bird occurring over a vast region from Western Europe and north-west Africa to the eastern seaboard of Asia and down into south-east Asia. Across its vast range, several very distinct racial forms have evolved to look very different from each other, especially when forms at the extremes of its range are compared.

The Eurasian Jay is classified as Least Concern. Does not qualify for a more at risk category. Widespread and abundant taxa are included in this category.

The Eurasian Jay breeds in coniferous, mixed and broad-leaved forests preferring forests with thick vegetation on the ground. At nesting time the Jay mainly lives in spruce-dominated mixed forests as the nest is most frequently built in a spruce in the height of up to 10 metres. Both parents build it into a hardly noticeable place. It is rather flat consisting of twigs outside and softer material, mosses and grasses inside. More
