This is a jackdaw bird. It is a small, black-capped crow of woodlands, parks, towns and coast. It has a short, chunky bill, a grey ‘shawl’ around the back of the head, a black cap and a white eye. The bird’s feathers are black and grey. It is known for stealing other birds’ eggs and breaking into garden feeders. It eats invertebrates, fruit, seeds and carrion, and occasionally takes eggs and nestlings. The jackdaw is a sociable bird that can be seen in flocks, often performing aerial acrobatics or repeating its short, loud ‘kya’ call. Jackdaws mate for life, pairing-up during their first year, but not mating until the year after
