Synopsis:

The complex breeding system of Pinyon jays, involving helpers at their nest, the bird's dependence on the seed of the Pinyon Pine and their highly developed food hoarding behaviour, provides the backdrop for a species monograph on this North American bird.

Review: "The authors have made a commendable effort to make their study as readable as possible...their style is never dull, for they are constantly asking rhetorical questions, and providing detailed but well-reasoned answers." -- David Tomlinson, New Scientist
