Summary description from Wikipedia:
Nutcracker (bird)
The nutcrackers (Nucifraga) are a genus of four species of passerine bird, in the family Corvidae, related to the jays and crows.
The genus Nucifraga was introduced by the French zoologist Mathurin Jacques Brisson in 1760 with the northern nutcracker (Nucifraga caryocatactes) as the type species. The genus name is a Neo-Latin translation of an old German name Nussbrecher, "nut-breaker".
