Injured Jay Q

Everett · 2010-05-07 11:16:06

Hi folks, im just back from walking the dog in Wicklow and while up there i came across an injured Jay, it appeared to have a damaged , maybe broken wing.I was just wondering would this bird have been attacked by a bird of prey of some sort or just maybe hit a tree or something.

Was it near a road? bearing in mind it could have travelled overland.
