For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Not all jays are shy.A jay visits my conservatory here in Cambridgeshire.It is totally unfazed by the dog, who lies by the open door of the drawing room and watches it from a couple of metres away. It must know that the dog is too bone idle to get up and chase it. It comes in because I put peanuts in there for other birds and the squirrels .Judging from the frequency of its visits, often every few minutes, it must still have young to feed. Jays have the habit of burying acorns, resulting in many an oak tree in England, so we may have peanuts sprouting in the garden come Spring!
