Jays (11th October)

A little bit of excitement on Birdforum as to the recent influx of Jays from the continent.  Naturally it has taken Cornwall a little longer to feel the effects of this surge of birds as it lies to the far west of the country, one of the furthest distances from the closest crossing from the continent in Kent.  Not sure whether "my" 2 Jays Garrulus glandarius that I saw near the campus today were part of this influx but I always like to dream that they've flown all the way from Scandinavia, or central Europe.  Proof I can day-dream.
