Jay Watch is a citizen science program to fill in data gaps by monitoring Florida scrub-jays on conservation sites to assess populations and trends over time. Scrub-jay groups, including young of the year to assess productivity, are mapped annually, and habitat condition is mapped biennially. Habitat loss and degradation are the reasons attributed to the species' decline and Threatened listing status. Jay Watch data inform habitat management, with the goal of more high quality habitat to support more scrub-jays.
