Description wikipedia

Woodhouse's scrub jay (Aphelocoma[a] woodhouseii) is a species of scrub jay native to western North America, ranging from southeastern Oregon and southern Idaho to central Mexico. Woodhouse's scrub jay was until recently considered the same species as the California scrub jay, and collectively called the western scrub jay. Prior to that both of them were also considered the same species as the island scrub jay and the Florida scrub jay; the taxon was then called simply the scrub jay. Woodhouse's scrub jay is nonmigratory and can be found in urban areas, where it can become tame and will come to bird feeders. While many refer to scrub jays as "blue jays", the blue jay is a different species of bird entirely. Woodhouse's scrub jay is named for the American naturalist and explorer Samuel Washington Woodhouse.

Translated Descriptions (4)

fr wikipedia
Le Geai de Woodhouse (Aphelocoma woodhouseii) est une espèce d'oiseaux de la famille des Corvidae. Son nom est en hommage à Samuel Washington Woodhouse (1821-1904). Son aire s'étend à travers le Mexique et le Sud-Ouest des États-Unis. Il a été séparé du Geai buissonier en 2016. Plus terne que ce dernier, il possède néanmoins un bec plus fin, plus droit et moins crochu à l'extrémité, lui facilitant l'extraction de pins à pignons, présents à travers son aire de répartition.

nl wikipedia
Woodhouse' struikgaai (Aphelocoma woodhouseii) is een zangvogel uit de familie Corvidae (kraaien). De vogel werd in 1858 door de Amerikaanse vogelkundige Spencer Fullerton Baird geldig als soort beschreven en vernoemd naar de arts en natuuronderzoeker Samuel Washington Woodhouse (1821-1904). Dit taxon wordt ook wel behandeld als ondersoort van de westelijke struikgaai (A. californica), zoals door BirdLife International. Daarom heeft de soort geen vermelding op de Rode lijst van de IUCN.
