The Eurasian jay or jay (Garrulus glandarius) is a species of bird occurring over a vast region from Western Europe and north-west Africa to the Indian Subcontinent and further to the eastern seaboard of Asia and down into south-east Asia. Garrulus glandarius is called jay, without any epithets, by English speakers in Great Britain and Ireland. It is the original 'jay' after which all others are named. |
