Love, love, love Jackdaw's, thanks very much for posting. I've had the same family of Jackdaws living in my chimney for around 9 years, they are adorable and even follow me when I go for a walk, I get some strange stares when they swoop down to me around 12 of them lol squawking , even waiting for me whilst I pop into the corner shop, they hang around with a few pigeons the same two doves and two seagulls who have all taken to following me, they've even started following me when I take a drive in the car. I'd be very interested if anyone has experienced the similar stories. I've started filming and documenting their loveable habits. No complaints, even though they've started knocking on my bedroom window at the first glimpse of sunrise, they give me so much pleasure. Wonderful , entertaining and so funny, a gift from God, an evolutionary miracle! ;) xx please reply if you have stories about your Jackdaws or other birds...
How lovely to hear that we have the same experience me and my wife nowadays we have a crow that's following usand our dog on our walks, wakws us up every day.
I have been feeding as many as 40 Jackdaws in my garden every day, have made some crazy bird feeders for them (here's a link on my personal channel - ua-cam.com/video/7BwDVtEcq1o/v-deo.html). They follow me to the shops occasionally and always they watch me (and everything else that goes on). Incredible, admirable, acrobats of the sky. Love these guys!
I discovered a smaller jackdaw in my garden yesterday, I think he fell out of the nest as there were heavy winds. He doesn't seem to be injured but he can't really fly yet, i guess he is still to small for that altough he seems to be fully feathered. We scattered some food around the garden and I tried to feed him but he doesn't seem to really want it as he just throws it down again. He likes to jump up on my arm though and sit by me for some time. Hes also communicating with the other jackdaws flying around
My Dad had a pet Jackdaw called Jack when he was a young lad, one day he followed him to school and stole the silver caps off of everyone's milk bottles
Takes me back to when we took care of a jackdaw. He was a very special bird. Had a very pronounced personality, equal parts curiosoty and smarts as playful mischeviousness and attention seeking. I really miss that little bugger.
cintu lator And that's provided we're not underestimating their intelligence... Given their problem solving abilities, I wouldn't put past them to have IQs comparable to 8-10 year olds. (Of course, considering that our methods of measuring IQ are tailored according to human standards, the main problem might be that we compare their intelligence to our intelligence. I mean, show me a 2-3 year old, or even a 8-10 year old, that can survive out in the wild as successfully as jackdaws can.)
I had one of these thirty years ago, some local boys got it from a nest when it was a chick, mine loved corned beef. He was just as tame as yours here but sadly being tame can be their downfall. Mine used to fly off and return every day, one day I missed him he never returned, after a few days I found out why, a pile of feathers in the garden, a cat had caught him
i am 70 now live in canada when i was 14yrs old in england we took baby jack daws out of a tree and i had one for a long time he rode on my jack russels back ,,ride on my bike handle bars lol i kept him in a hutch at night but open all day ,,silly bugger fell in the rain barrel and drowned ,,they say if you cut thier tounge with a silver sixpence they will talk ,,i was born in norfolk country boy lol
It's strange how everyone who owns a hand reared Jackdaw calls it a HIM. But to be honest with you I've come to realise that most people call animals birds and just about any insects a HE / HIM. unless we can see what sex it is. It's a strange thing that most people do. It's just something I've noticed. No problem and your Jackdaw is great. I had one that I rescued for over 9 years. Sadly SHE died about 2 years ago. SHE Was so happy in her home I built her She even made a nest and layed eggs. I used to let her out so she could fly free. But she always came back. Only once did she come home injured. I think she had been shot with an air rifle. But I fixed her damaged wing and she was all good again. Good luck with your Jackdaw. IT'S beautiful. 👍PS. If you notice that in the comments everyone that says they have or had a Jackdaw has said have called it a HIM. Lol. Just proven my point that's all. Lol
I think the clue is in the name Jackdaw, so most people will name them Jack which generally is a male name. So calling Jack "he" has a logic to it. I wonder if many people with tame magpies name them Maggie and say she?
Hello, I need some help. I rescued a fledgling jackdaw bird from a cat. He or she drinks water itself but not good. I have tried wet dog food mixed by water to make it soft and also cooked rice, carrot, chicken and mixed them. At the moment I need to feed him by a syringe and I have to open his beak as he resists eating. Is it a correct thing to do? The other problem is while I am feeding him, he moves a lot and try to scape. I am worried if I am hurting him as I do not know how to keep him in my hands that he satay still. Do you have any suggestions what I should do while I am feeding him. Do you have any email or other apps such as WhatsApp or Skype...... that I can send you a video or picture. Many thanks for your help

+GrahamChapman IQ is like 2-3 yrs human child. They are very intelligent birds.
