Description

Whiskey Jack Perched on a Winter Larch: Having dropped its golden needles, the empty branches of a larch tree presents an ideal perch for this dainty little Whiskey Jack who lives year round in the northern mountain forest. Also known as Gray Jay and Camp Robber, these gregarious birds will often investigate humans in their territory and take advantage of any opportunity to pick up bits of food.
