Description
The Canada jay is a year-round resident of the boreal forests that stretch
from coast to coast and into the North—exactly why it earns its patriotic
name. While other bird species pack their bags for warmer places, this grey
and-white songbird stays put, stashing snacks and turning winter into its own
playground. Bold and curious, the Canada jay loves to swoop in and check out
anything new, especially if it might be edible. On this Colourful Birds coin, its
bold spirit and evergreen perch pop against the winter backdrop, celebrating
the resilience and quiet charm of Canada’s namesake bird.
