Woodhouse's Scrub-Jay is a widespread New World jay found in the interior western United States and northern Mexico. It is characterized by its duller blue and grey plumage compared to the California Scrub-Jay.
Where to spot
Found in dry woodlands, pinyon-juniper forests, and arid scrublands across the interior western United States and northern Mexico.
How to spot
Look for its duller blue upperparts and plainer greyish-brown back compared to the California Scrub-Jay. Listen for its harsher, scratchy calls. It is often active and conspicuous.
When to spot
Active year-round during daylight hours. Often observed foraging on the ground or in low bushes.
