the family of corvids is so fascinating... the jackdaws (my favourite, with their small size and grey heads and pretty songs) the ravens with their bent beaks, the rooks with their straight long beaks and strutting around like 19th century judges, the crows and their bizarre songs when they gather in trees, and the magpies with their machine-gun sounding calls and mischeivous thievery of shiny things
i love birds... almost as much as i love cats... many more species tho
