About These Birds
Eurasian Magpie
The Eurasian magpie is one of the most intelligent animals on Earth and the first non-mammal demonstrated to recognize itself in a mirror. These bold corvids build elaborate domed nests of sticks and have a well-known attraction to shiny objects, though this reputation may be exaggerated.
Black-headed Jay
The Black-headed Jay is a medium-sized, boldly patterned jay with a black head and face, gray body, and bright blue-and-white wing markings. It inhabits coniferous and mixed forests of the Himalayas from northern Pakistan through India to Bhutan, typically at elevations between 1,500 and 3,500 meters. It feeds on acorns, seeds, insects, and small vertebrates, and is known to cache food for winter.
