Jays are several species of medium-sized, usually colorful
and noisy, passerine birds in the crow family Corvidae. The names jay and
magpie are somewhat interchangeable, and the evolutionary relationships are
rather complex. For example, the Eurasian Magpie seems more closely related to
the Eurasian Jay than to the Oriental Blue and Green Magpies, whereas the Blue
Jay is not closely related to either.
