These birds are often found in scrublands, open forests, and urban areas across western North America. These birds are social and often live in family groups. Scrub-Jays are known for their complex behaviors, including caching food for later use, which demonstrates their advanced memory skills. They primarily feed on insects, nuts, and fruits, playing an important role in their ecosystems by helping to disperse seeds.
