Before I completely shut the door on my National Birds of the World Series ( see yesterday's blog), I feel must add one more bird to that suspended list: the CANADA JAY.
Canada's national bird is the Canada Jay (a.k.a. the Gray Jay or Whiskey Jack), which was officially designated by the Public Bill (Senate) S-221 in May 2025. The decision followed a long public campaign led by Canadian Geographic and others, which identified the Canada Jay as a fitting symbol for its hardiness, intelligence and presence across the country.
Please comment if you wish.
