    Default Juvenile Jackdaw- Corvus monedula

    Heard these little noises coming from out side my back door so had a peak through the window and he was on the sill. Jumped down to the back door step and the parents were making quite a fuss on my arrival so quickly grabbed my camera and here a some of th photos I took and they are full frames nothing cropped. No enhancement at all just reduced by size
    He / she is so cute with it's baby blue eyes

    I just couldn't believe my luck. Here I was stuck in waiting for the engineer and right on my back door step.
    They apparently have a nest in the chimney of the house next door. The baby must have slid down the roof and fallen off when he hit the gutter. Awww

    The equipment I use is a Canon 30D with Sigma 50-500mm lens. I also have a garden hide from which I take most of my pictures.

    Thanks Babs.
    the parents looked after it I think it was just a bit surprised or shocked from the tumble.
