Hi Bob! Que imagens tão maravilhosas! Penas pretas, elegancia e glamour. Mas não é essa ave qu "fala" demais? Aqui chama-se Gralha a uma pessoa que fala emais. Por isso saio devagarinho...:) Bji
You have to admit Bob these are one smart bird, in more ways than one. I had one as a pet once and boy was it cleaver, I could right a book about the tricks it got up to. All the best Gordon.
Kawka chciała, żebyś jej zrobił śliczne zdjęcia z każdej strony, nawet z tyłu. Pozdrawiam. Jackdaw wish you had done to her beautiful pictures on each side, even in the back. Yours.
Stunning images! I always find the eye of a Jackdaw stunning, but until these images I never noticed the sheen on the wing (30+ years of birding and there is always something new to learn even with common birds)
Super images Bob, especially number one, that 'metallic' sheen on the feathers is beautiful...[;o)
ReplyDeleteI think it is the third, ha ha.
DeleteNice photos of the Jacdaw. I have never seen one in person. Reminds me a little of our "Grackles".
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures, Bob.
ReplyDeleteThe first picture is my favorite.
Thanks Irma, and your favourite.
DeleteBlacks are the absolute hardest to capture. Well done!!
ReplyDeletePhotographing is hard work, especially in black, cheers Tabor.
