A rook

I met him in the city center when he tried to break the nut. I was interested in how he manages to deal with such a strange beak. He coped ... The picture shows that the tip of the beak is much darker. I think he must have broken him one day and he got so strange.

Such an odd beak! It must be useful for scooping out bugs from tree bark though. Great shot!

Our rooks don't have curved beaks.. it is a strange looking adaptation, for a specific food source I guess.

[Pyrrhula]

Long before humans discover tools birds did grow them. Great shot of this awesome bird.
