The Burmese Jay was rather abundant on suitable localities in Northern Siarn. 

 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.
