Description
Western scrub-jays include several subspecies that live along the Pacific coast and in the interior West. Western scrub-jays eat insects, fruits, nuts, berries, and seeds, and occasionally small animals. Western scrub-jays have been shown to have an ability to plan ahead in choosing food storage sites, remembering the locations of their caches and storing enough food to plan for the future. Jays can also be quite sneaky when it comes to acquiring and storing food. They steal acorns from acorn woodpecker caches and from stores hidden by other jays, and then look around to make sure no one is watching before they hide their prize again. The Western scrub-jay does not migrate. It is found in the United States from Washington State south through California and into Mexico and east to Texas. This photo was taken in San Marino, California.
