Jackdaw

by Jumbo48

I took this jackdaw whilst on Brownsea Island, nice place to spend a day, plus they have Red Squirrels there (if your quick enough to photograph one)

Well taken John, excellent detail and DOF. These birds have glorious colours, I like this one. Which lens are you using?

It's a cracker. I love Jackdaws. They can sometimes be so comical!

Nice one
