One of the smallest members in the crow family in Europe. Can be very approachable in towns and built up areas but are wary in the countryside. Adults have very distinctive grey eyes and a close look will reveal a purple gloss on the wings and back, not forgetting the grey cast on the underparts. The Jackdaw is known for its 'kjack' contact calls.

What may look like a milky cloudy eye here is in fact the nictitating membrane or sometimes known as the third eyelid. This membrane is transparent and will help to keep the eye moist and protect the eye from wind, dust and potential hazards. As well as birds having a nictitating membrane other animals such as reptiles and some mammals also have them.
Ever the agile opportunist......and with the evil eye too!

Posing on my garage roof. They are a bit like marmite, insofar as they divide opinion. You either love them or hate them. I'm amazed at their intelligence. The new Leica lens is awesome!
BTW, she has lost a toe!

Just felt like doing something with a raven. From an old shot of one of the town ravens, overlay is created from an iPhone app i had back in the day.
This Jackdaw looks like it's spotted something of interest on the ground.

The Jackdaw is our smallest crow - smaller than a Carrion Crow or Rook, but about the same size as a Jay. Like all the crows, Jackdaws are inquisitive and intelligent birds.
Thank you for all your kind comments, Take care, stay safe and have a wonderful week !!
