Corvids.

I find when you mention the word corvid or any of the individual birds within the group it meets with a strong reaction. People have a definite opinion about them- I am a huge fan [I know that some of their behaviour is unsavoury but humans can hardly take the moral high ground]. I could write reams, use poems, quotes but others in the blogging world [see Leanne's lovely entries on her Tales of Simple Days] have already done so. Instead a few of Mr GBT's pictures I hope will capture their spirit.

    Thanks Leanne! I am hoping that one day we might strike lucky and get a photo of a jay.

    Thank you Aril, I too love the corvids and was glad to see both a magpie and jackdaws yesterday in the garden for the RSPB bird count :o)
    I occasionally see jays in a small wood about half a mile from home - they always make me smile!

    Thanks for your comment Rose. We had torrential rain so the birds didn't come to the feeder during the RSPB count this year. Today there's been lots- typical!
