Gray Jay
Perisoreus canadensis
The Gray Jay has been given many names. In the far north, it is known as the Whiskey Jack. Early trappers heard the native Americans call it ‘wiska-jon’, which they modified to Whiskey Jack. This hearty bird will nest in the coldest part of the year, even in the bitter winters of the far north.
