About These Birds
Black-collared Jay
The Black-collared Jay is a striking, medium-sized jay of Andean cloud forests in Colombia, Ecuador, Venezuela, and Peru, with deep blue plumage, a black head, and a distinctive narrow black collar. It inhabits the canopy and edges of humid montane forests at elevations between 1,500 and 3,000 meters. It feeds on insects, berries, small vertebrates, and eggs.
Andaman Treepie
The Andaman Treepie is a vulnerable corvid with a 23.3 cm wingspan, weighing 102.5 grams, endemic to the Andaman Islands. It inhabits forest and woodland, foraging omnivourously for insects, fruit, and small animals. Its restricted range on the islands makes it conservation-dependent.
