2 crows!!

Well if you’re gonna pose like that…

magpie in the snow

theres so many corvids around our house

like at least 8 magpies
at least 6 crows
and an uncountable amount of jackdaws

And they’re just vibing together (usually)

this one tree is like a Corvid Commune

There appears to be a rook spying on me

a young great spotted woodpecker has discovered our peanut butter jar

young g.s. woodpeckers are recognised by the red cap, whereas adult males only have a small red patch on the back on the head, and adult females lacking the patch entirely

kinda scuffed video,

but we had a special visitor today: not only was this the first jacksdaw on the pole, it’s a ‘piebald’ jackdaw

that means it has those spots that lack pigment entirely, though otherwise its a perfectly healthy bird

bird youngsters in the yard:

2 great tits
1 blue tit
2 house sparrows
3 magpies

also spotted (adults):

2 great spotted woodpeckers, one male, one female
1 Eurasian jay
1 very flustered starling
2 wood pigeons, one of them very lorge

And, lest we forget, over 50 jackdaws in a tree nearby

“chat is this real” but instead of an abstract group of people I ask the actual chat perched on my shoulder
