Our Bird of the Week, the Island Scrub-Jay, holds a unique title: the only island endemic bird species of mainland North America. Once part of the species known simply as the Scrub Jay which was split into separate species in 1998, the Island Scrub-Jay is noticeably larger and more brightly-colored than its near relatives, including the Florida Scrub-Jay. Fossil remains suggest that it probably diverged from its closest relative, the California Scrub-Jay, about 150,000 years ago. Like other spec

Florida Scrub-Jays are truly a one of a kind bird found only in Florida’s unique scrub habitats💙⁠ ⁠ In the fall, these clever birds harvest acorns and nuts to bury in caches to snack on as food becomes more scarce in the winter.

Scrub jays are the long-legged homebodies of the Florida Corridor. They don’t migrate and generally stay within the same territory year after year with their family group. A year after hatching, adolescent scrub jays are known to stick around as helpers and help care for the new chicks.
