3rd May 2026 – Bristol, UK

I only occasionally see jay in our garden but each year, at about this time, they come to my neighbour’s garden to collect nesting material.

This morning 2 jay provided quite a spectacle until the bully boys of the bird world, magpies, came and saw them off.

    Lovely pictures of the jay, Martin. I saw a peahen, a host of speckled thick knees and several blacksmith lspeings on our walk today.

      Lovely. I gather the thick knees can be quite vicious.
