The Jay by Basil Ede

from 'Birds of Town and Village'

Quote from the book

"This, the most colourful in plumage of all our
crows, is also the one which least often allows
it's fine feathers to be seen to full advantage,
for in addition to being extremely wary, it is more
entirely confined to woodland than any other
British member of its family."

Doesn't sound like our Cheeky Jay :))

But the book was written in 1965...

Comments
========
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.
