Jackdaw
The beach in Llandudno had many Jackdaws scurrying around looking for scraps to feed on. Some were really quite cheeky, hopping onto the railings to see if you'll kindly drop any ice cream for them. Still, they are my favourite corvid and they're pretty clever guys too. Plus they have that piercing blue eye. So handsome.

I was just about to say: what a handsome bird, when I read your post; and you said the same thing. These Jackdaws look like our House crows and seem to have the same personalities!
ReplyDeleteExcellent birding photography ~ gems of nature for OWT ~ thanks, ^_^

Your Jackdaw is a handsome bird! Great shots!
ReplyDeleteGreat shots of the Jackdaw - that's one we don't have out here in Australia.
ReplyDeleteinteresting to see your JackDaw
ReplyDeleteI like your Jackdaw pictures Adam. There are very few confiding Jackdaws around these parts, mainly because the species is regularly shot at by local "sportsmen". A shame really because they are not such pests as Carrion Crows.
ReplyDeleteHandsome indeed! Did you have any ice cream for him?
ReplyDeleteI didn't have any ice cream unfortunately, but I'm sure he'd have been after it if I had
DeleteA handsome bird indeed! Those blue eyes are very striking. Wonderful captures!
ReplyDeleteLovely portraits of the Jackdaw.
ReplyDeleteI agree, a very handsome bird. I my area Jackdaws are very rare due to the loose of nesting places and industrial farming. They count them and recognized that only 1 or 2 birds per nest survives the first year.
ReplyDeleteThat's such a shame. They're a beautiful bird.
Deletesuch neat sharp-eyed birds!
ReplyDeleteHow brave looking and handsome Jackdaw he is♪♪♪ As for corvid , we can only see black ones here in my area. Thank you SO much, 'corvid' was the first word for me :-)

The Jackdaw looks like a corvid with personality....although they all have quite the personality. Yet I can distinguish this one from other crows and ravens!
ReplyDeletevery handsome bird! (and love your shorebird header image, by the way!)
