What an intriguing looking bird Chris....black bird w/a white eye.
You did well on all of these, but I'd have to pick the first as my favorite.

Intriguing...I always thought 'Jackdaw' was another name for Crow. Now I see they're different, yet similar. Thanks for those!

Thank you for the comments.
The light was good yesterday which helps bring out detail.
The Jackdaw is in the crow family along with the jay,magpie,crow,rook and raven.
