The Burmese Jay was rather abundant on suitable localities in Northern Siam. 
It generally goes about in small flocks and they seem to prefer the open deciduous forests 
before the dense evergreen jungles. It was most common at rather high altitudes where 
the mountains are covered with pines sometimes of gigantic proportions. It seldom 
descends into the lower valleys with their dense vegetation. 
Young birds were obtained at the end of May always in company with the adult 
bird. 
Among the specimens in my collection there is a considerable amount of variation 
as regards the white area on the forehead and in one specimen it also occupies a large 
part of the crown.
