According to my Collins bird book, the Jay is described as "breeds rather more thinly than it's main breeding range" on the distribution map of Ireland.doofaloofa wrote:I've never seen a Jay in the 20 years hereOdsox wrote: Also nearby, we have all the members of the crow family bar one.We have Hooded Crows, Ravens, Rooks, Magpies, Jackdaws, Choughs and Jays. The one we don't have is the Carrion Crow.
I assumed they were not native to this area
I agree it's a beautiful bird, but has a rather screeching call.
