Canada Jay

Perisoreus canadensis

Its nickname 'whiskyjack' has nothing to do with whisky: it comes from Wisakedjak, a kindly figure in the stories of several First Nations. Until 2018 its official name was the Gray Jay.

Perisoreus may come from the Greek perisōreuō, 'to heap up,' and it does store food all over its territory for winter. Canadensis means 'from Canada.' A 2016 Canadian Geographic poll picked it as Canada's national bird, though that isn't official.
