A visitor

The pigeon, the sparrows , the tits the jackdaw -had all come and gone when I spotted a crow on the old bird table before I could decide whether it was a crow -he had flown away again !! I I hope he will not make a habit of dropping in !!

[Tremerryn]

Love the expression in his eye ..... "let me staaay Bery, pleezel!"

[Babs]

Crows are very clever I am sure he will be back. Nice shot.

[Rita]

Yep he will be back, they don't miss a thing that involves grub, he does not look that old :O)

[Graham Thresher]

They are so interesting. fav

[Cathy Donohoue]

FAV for me Beryl.

[Beryl Lloyd]

@cdonohoue @thresheg @barneyone @barneyone @onewing @tremerryn
Thank you all for your kind words and favs ---I was amazed to see him there outside my kitchen window and did not think the photo was very good or clear as my kettle was boiling for my morning coffee and the window slightly steamed up Yes Rita I also think he is a young one who hasn't mastered the art of grooming yet lol !!

[Paula W]

Probably too young to realise the bird table isn't meant for him! You did a great job here Beryl.

[Beryl Lloyd]

@paulaw Thanks Paula --- I do not mind just the one --but I hope he does not bring the whole family for a feast !!

[tony gig]

Lovely shot Beryl.

[Beryl Lloyd]

@tonygig Thanks Tony !

[Pat Knowles]

Ugly boy.......no one could say these blighters are very loveable but poor things can't help how they look! Good capture Beryl.

[carol white]

Great expression,a super capture!!

[Linda]

Oh, he had his beedy eye on you and Carol is right - such expression on his face.

[Hazel]

I think he has a slightly mean streak! Like his ruffled plumage!

[Claire]

He has a mean look in his eye; they use to come and plunder my bird table

[Pete]

We have lots of jackdaw raiders in our garden. I always get confused with crows and rooks. This one is a crow, I think

[Rob Wareham]

He does look a bit evil but I'm sure he is just going about his business.

[Dawn Ulmer]

Well done.

[Sian B]

Wow - impressive!

[Beryl Lloyd]

Thank you all so much in taking interest and comment on my crow -not the prettiest of visitore -- bless him !!

[wendy frost]

He is thinking I like the table in this restaurant I will have to return. A great capture and perhaps in the future too .

[Rick Schies]

Well at least you didn't come away empty birded

[Nita]

Oh goodness, he looks a little scary, he wants all the feed for himself.

[Gena Pegg]

He looks almost purple! He does look a bit possessive!

[Taffy]

What a soft fluffy head.

[Beryl Lloyd]

@wendyfrost @digitalrn @sansjuan @eyesmile @taffy thank you all for taking the time to comment I wish he had given me more time to study him but thankfully I had my camera to hand in the kitchen as I often do when the birds come for their breakfast -- his fluffy head indicates a youngster and he certainly wasn't fully grown --an observation I have since made looking at adults on nearby chomney pots !!
