I think perhaps old westerners....as in cowboy and Indian days, used names such as this as nicknames. Perhaps it was something left over from the 2 generation ancestors...and a very nice title for something which I only thought was in a movie script. Each day I am surprised by things which you take in all of the time in your neck of the woods. Fine lesson today Ulla!

A fine catch indeed Ulla, quite sharp in spite of the long distance, and the exposure was just right for the high definition of the dark feathers. That warm eye contact from such a distance is nice too.
Cheers,
Mehmet

Great shot of the Jackdaw, its a great composition and I like the pose with the bird turning its head to the side, nice sharp detail on the feathers with good colours and you have captured the greyish neck perfectly.

Hello Ulla,
Quite common here, the Jackdaw. Think it was less common when I was young. You captured this smart bird very well; excellent depth of field for example.

Hi Ulla,

Wonderful shot of this European Jackdaw, excellent detail, stands out well against the green grassy background, looks very similar to our Black Currawong except with a bluish eye, lovely work, all the best Cheers Rick :)

Hi Ulla,
Outstanding shot with such neat and clear details. Superb lighting and exposure and I like the way you have handled the black plumage. Among the green grasses it stands out elegantly and that blue ringed eye looks fabulous. Excellent POV and composition. Kudos.

Fabulous image of this Jackdaw, Ulla!
The only English "Corvus" I have yet to photograph :-)
Very good light that highlights the lighter neck.
Great detail in the feathers.
Excellent DOF too.

Splendid image of this species, I think they look like a crow growing old with greying plumage. The eye is lovely as is the camera work. Thanks for sharing and the great note Ulla.

Hi Ulla.
I do not image the best shot of the bird. You managed to reflected all tiny colour shades and details simply amazingly despite the difficult for correct exposure object. Your camera with teleconverter in your hands create a wonders. Bravo, Ulla, great photographer.
